Welfare Issues for Professional Deputies – What You Need To Know
This event is now fully booked. To join the waiting list, or for updates about future training and Q&A sessions for Professional Deputies, please email deputyservices@ms-solicitors.co.uk
Paula Jones, Associate Solicitor and Professional Deputies Service Lead, is running a free virtual training and Q&A session for Professional Deputies. This session will cover common welfare issues that Professional Deputies increasingly have to grapple with, including whether these issues can be addressed within a Deputy’s general authority without having to resort to an application to the Court of Protection.
This session will include:
- Common welfare issues that arise in commissioning disputes
- If a Deputy for Property and Finance can deal with these welfare issues within their general authority
- The limitations of what issues a Deputy can deal with and when to apply to the CoP for authority;
- What to do if a Deputy considers that a welfare issue is not being addressed by an Integrated Care Board or Local Authority.
Paula will share her extensive experience of resolving complex commissioning disputes and the session will provide an opportunity for attendees to share their experiences. There will be a Q&A and we encourage attendees to submit questions in advance.
Date: Thursday 25 September, 11pm – 2.30pm
This is an online training session that will take place on Zoom and a link to join the session will be sent out to all attendees in advance
