Appendix 11TermAbuseAdult Protection ModuleAdult at Risk of HarmAdult Protection CaseConferenceAdult Protection PlanGlossary of TermsDefinitionAbuse is a violation of an individual’s human and civilrights by any other person or persons.(No Secrets paragraph 2.5)No Secrets – English Guidance Documentwww.dh.gov.uk/prod_consum_dh/groups/dh_digitalassets/@dh/@en/documents/digitalasset/dh_4074544.pdfNB: The Adult Support and Protection (Scotland) Act2007 (ASP Act) refers to “Harm”. This is a significantdifference. The terms are not interchangeable. The ASPAct supercedes the No Secrets Guidance, and refers toall harmful conduct, including neglect and self-harm,which are not covered in the No Secrets Guidance or bythe definition of abuse. Abuse relates to deliberate harmcaused by another, while the term Harm is wider andincludes both deliberate and unintentional acts oromissions.A module within the SWIFT system (see below) whereSocial Work staff record all actions and decisions madeunder the adult protection procedures.
