The module investigates the history of and settings for victimisation and abuse of vulnerable individuals, in the context of adult support and protection. Students are asked analyse their own service setting with respect to arrangements that minimise the possibility of victimisation and abuse and develop strategies to deal with suspected or identified incidents of abuse. A number of illustrative case studies are explored. There is also an investigation of the knowledge and skills needed to respond to the needs of those who have been abused in a constructive manner.
