A report has found measures in place to protect adults in Falkirk from self harming are "robust and responsive".
The inspection of Falkirk Health and Social Care Partnership - jointly carried out by the Care Inspectorate, Healthcare Improvement Scotland, and Her Majesty ’s Inspectorate of Constabulary in Scotland (HMICS) - commended the practices and processes in place to ensure those vulnerable were protected and supported.
A review of recent casework across the district also highlighted how a "diligent and energetic" strategic vision for adult protection underpinned the approach teams applied to their work during the pandemic.
Patricia Cassidy, Chief Officer, Falkirk Health and Social Care Partnership said: "Colleagues should be proud of the findings in this report, which shines a spotlight on an engaged and enthusiastic workforce.
"Staff and partners will continue to work collaboratively to protect adults in Falkirk against harm, building on the positive outcomes already achieved.
"I wish to thank every colleague who took part in the inspection process, which I know will have added further scrutiny to a challenging workload during a time of significant pressure."
But some recommendations were highlighted, including the better involvement and collaboration from all members of the partnership.
Inspectors found that, at times, key partners were not always collaborative, or involved when required in the adult protection processes.
