THE JOURNAL OF ADULT PROTECTION VOL.18 NO.3 2016

---

Purpose- the purpose of this paper is to draw on systemic and psychodynamic theories to subject published serious case reviews (SCRs) involving self-neglect to a deeper level of scrutiny, in order to understand how complex contexts impact on self-neglect work. it also updates the dataset of self-neglect SCRs and accompanying thematic analysis.
Design/methodolgy/approach - Psychodynamic and systemic adeas are applied to the content of published SCRs in order to understand how different contexts-societal, legal, organisational, professional and personal-impact on and are influenced by work with adults who self-neglect. Further published reviews are added to the core dataset, with thematic analysis updated using four domains.
Findings - Thematic analysis within and recommendations from SCRs have focused on the micro context, what takes place between individual practitioners, their teams and adult who self-neglect. This level of analysis also communly extends to how organisations have worked together and how Local Safeguarding Adults Board(LSABs) have supported and scrutinised their collaboratorion. this level of analysis enables an understanding of local geography. however, there are wider systems that impac on and influence this work, especially law and the societal context. if review findings and recommendations are to fully answer the question wht, systemic analysis should be extended to appreciate the influence of national geography.
Research limitations/implications - There is still no national database of reviews commissioned by LSABs so the dataset reported here might be incomplete. The care act 2014 does not require publication of reports but only a summary of findings and recommendations in LSAB annual repots. This makes learning for service improvement challenging.
Practical implications - Answering the question why is a significant challnge for safeguarding adults reviews (SARs). Different approaches have been recommended, some rooted in systems theory. The theoretical formulations here extend the lens of systemic analysis on the different contexts that influence how practitioners work with adults who self-neglect and simultaneously are shaped ny that work. This adds to the practice, management and organisational evidence base for working with adults who self-neglect but also shines the analytic lens on legal and policy mandates.
Originality/value - the paper extends the use of systemic theory for understanding and learning from practice with adults who self-neglect and additionally offers psychodynamic formulations to appreciate what happens within and between practitioners and their organisations. The paper therfore contributes new perspectives to the methodology for conducting SARs. it also extends the thematic analysis of available reviews that focus on work with adults who self-neglect,further building on the evidence base for practice.
