Abuse in care homes covers safeguarding concerns about adults who live in or are cared for in residential or nursing homes, including neglect, physical, sexual, financial or psychological harm, and rights violations. A solicitor in this area helps by reviewing safeguarding referrals, coordinating with Local Authorities, and preparing or overseeing Court of Protection applications when capacity or control of care is in dispute. They may help obtain investigations, secure protective orders, and negotiate safeguarding plans, while ensuring regulatory compliance and safeguarding procedures under the Care Act 2014 and related guidance. They work with care providers, commissioners, families, and regulators to protect vulnerable residents and secure suitable ongoing care.
The solicitor handles complex safeguarding investigations, assessment of capacity, and disputes over who makes decisions for the resident. They navigate the social care framework, the Court of Protection or other relevant tribunals when capacity is in doubt, and coordinate with the Local Authority, CQC/Regulators, and healthcare professionals to secure appropriate safeguarding or replacement arrangements.
