Minutes:
The Board received the Safeguarding Adults Board (HSAB) Annual Report
for 2018/19.
It was reported that all
Safeguarding Adults Boards were required to produce an annual report, summarising
their key achievements and priorities. The report set out the national and
local developments on safeguarding adults at risk.
The HSAB continued to contribute to
the objectives of the Health and Wellbeing Board’s Joint Health and Wellbeing
Strategy and Halton’s Strategic Partnership’s
Sustainable Community Strategy.
For 2018/19, the focus was on
self-neglect and hoarding; this work culminated in the re-launch of the Halton Self-Neglect Panel. For the year ahead, it was
reported that the priorities would be:-
·
Quality Assurance;
·
Learning and Professional Development; and
·
Co-production and Engagement.
The previous Chair, Audrey Williamson, had
stood down from the HSAB. The Board wished to pass on their thanks for the work
she had carried out in the past. It was noted that Mil Vasic, Strategic
Director for People at Halton Borough Council, had
taken over the role of Chair.
RESOLVED: That the report be noted.
