Abstract

This paper:

• explores the relationship between policy initiatives regarding risk-taking in adult care and its claim to reflect user experience;

• argues that these policy initiatives are driven by the imperative of rationalising risk management; and

• claims that such policies are not a response to user demand and that more research is needed to evaluate the attitudes of users of adult care to risk- taking.
