The British Association for the Study and Prevention of Child Abuse and Neglect (BASPCAN) has published a report about family involvement in serious case reviews. Practice recommendations included: guidance rather than prescriptive practice should be used to inform levels of family participation; local protocols should be clear about the reasons for seeking family involvement; and decisions about which family members and significant others to involve should be made on a case by case basis, with no pre-determined exclusions. |
