The Human Rights Act 1998 identified a number of protections including the right to liberty (Article 5) and the right to family life (Article 8). Social workers undertaking mental health assessments have to take into account Article 5 as do social workers applying Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards (DoLS). Social workers (and the courts) making decisions about the removal of children, or adoption, have to take into account Article 8. As this Practice Guide will demonstrate there are many other examples.}, note = {INFO COMPLETE (Info via contacts 4/3/2020 LM) PERMISSION GRANTED (Permission rec'd 28/4/2020 LM, permission requested from BASW via online form 13/3/2020 LM) DOCUMENT READY (VOR rec'd from contact 13/3/2020 LM) ADDITIONAL INFO - Contact: Smith, Linda; Downie, Margaret (http://web.archive.org/web/20200216013820/https://www.basw.co.uk/media/news/2019/dec/social-work-and-human-rights-guides-launched [captured 16/2/2020])}, publicationstatus = {Published}, publisher = {British Association of Social Workers (BASW)}, url = {https://rgu-repository.worktribe.com/output/877989}, keyword = {Social workers, Human rights, Liberty, Family life, Mental health, Children, Adoption, Social work practice}, year = {2019}, author = {Harms-Smith, Linda and Martinez-Herrero, Maria Ines and Arnell, Paul and Bolger, Janine and Butler-Warke, Alice and Cook, William and Downie, Margaret and Farmer, Natalia and Nicholls, Jack and MacDermott, Denise} }
