Course Content:

• The case study is a real case and draws together many strands of the lessons to be learned from serious case reviews.
• The exercises will challenge the delegates to think about their practice, in a multi-agency arena.
• The Munro recommendations will be referred to throughout the 2 day course and the course will culminate in a reminder of the Munro review, the recommendations and where we are today.
