Learning Objectives

At the end of the session, participants will be able to:

  • To enable delegates to understand the impact of not having an LPA and the benefits of ensuring one is in place.

  • All clients need to understand what they are and be directed to have one. Stephen will take you through what to ensure you point out to clients as well as create evidence of having done this.

  • You will have enough information to enable a client to make their own decision about what should be considered. This will enable you to show a high level of responsibility and care to them.
