What strategies can we implement to better identify and support individuals who may be at risk? • Discuss the tools and techniques currently in place for identifying at-risk individuals and explore new approaches that could enhance early detection and intervention. 3. How do we balance the need for confidentiality with the necessity of sharing information to protect those at risk? • Consider the challenges of maintaining confidentiality while ensuring that critical information is shared appropriately to safeguard individuals. 4. What are some of the common terms or use of language that we use in our practice and how could these impact on identifying and responding to risks of exploitation? • Consider the use of acronyms or terms used in conversation or case recording.
