What now for deprivations of liberty?

What will the effect of the postponement of the Liberty Protections Safeguards be on local authorities? Local Government Lawyer asked 50 adult social care lawyers for their views on the potential consequences.

Coronavirus - its impact on Discharges, DNARs, DPs and DoLs

Cornerstone Barristers discuss how the pandemic is affecting adult social care departments in relation to discharges from hospital, do not resuscitate orders, direct payments and deprivations of liberty.

Central government's response to the pandemic means that local authority adult social care departments are having to grapple with a wide range of unprecedented issues at short notice.

A significant number of the recent questions and queries that have come to the Health and Social Care Team at Cornerstone Barristers can be grouped under the 4 D's - discharges, DNARs, DPs and DoLs. This seminar is aimed at sharing the knowledge and practice generated by those questions and queries and to give you an opportunity to ask more.
