Independent Health and Social Care Advocacy for Adults

Description

Bath and North East Somerset Council is recommissioning its statutory advocacy services for adults. This includes support under the Care Act, Mental Capacity Act (including DoLS and Liberty Protection Safeguards), Mental Health Act, and advocacy for complaints relating to health and social care. The aim is to ensure residents have access to high-quality, independent advocacy that upholds their rights, supports decision-making, and reflects local needs and legislative requirements.
