Enter 1 if the adult had enquiries in the collection year where it was determined additional action was required, resulting in a care and support protection plan.
Enter 0 if the adult did not have enquiries in the collection year where it was determined additional action was required, resulting in a care and support protection plan.

Category of safeguarding

This is intended to record safeguarding categories for all adults undergoing safeguarding, regardless of when enquiries were made. Record the category or categories of abuse and neglect recorded on the adult’s Care and Support Protection Plan (where details of abuse or
neglect were included).
The category used should indicate the primary concern at the point additional action was identified.
More than one category may apply.

For each of the specific categories that apply, enter 1 if the category was present at the point additional action was identified. Enter 0 if the category was not present at the point additional action was identified.
• Neglect

• Sexual
• Financial
• Emotional/Psychological (only)
Note that emotional/psychological abuse is considered always to occur if one of the other types of abuse occurs. Therefore, it is only recorded here if it occurs in isolation without other types of abuse. If 1 is entered for “emotional/psychological (only)”, all other categories should be recorded as 0.

Residence

*only completed for adults with an active care and support plan as of 31 March

Enter 1 if the adult is in their own home (i.e. residing in the community). This includes where the adult is in a residential care home or supported accommodation on a short-term placement or respite care – but would typically reside at home. This applies to both local authority-provided and private care homes or supported accommodation. Adults in an Adult Placement Scheme (Shared Lives) should be recorded here.
Enter 2 if the adult is living in a residential care home or supported accommodation on a long-term placement. As above, this applies to both local authority-provided and private care homes or supported accommodation.
Enter 3 if the adult is currently being held in the secure estate. Only select 3 if the adult is being held for a term of more than three months.
If the individual is not living in a residential care home on a long-term placement or currently being held in the secure estate for a term of more than three months, then they are considered as living in their own home. The responsible local authority is the local authority in which the secure estate is situated.

Current Safeguarding

*only completed for adults with an active care and support plan as of 31 March

Enter 1 if the adult had an active care and support protection plan for adults on 31 March where the local authority considers it necessary to protect an adult from abuse or neglect or a risk of abuse or neglect.
Enter 0 if the adult did not have an active care and support protection plan for adults on 31 March where the local authority considers it necessary to protect an adult from abuse or neglect or a risk of abuse or neglect.

‘Yes’ would indicate that at least one carer is known to the client on 31 March.

*only completed for adults with an active care and support plan as of 31 March

This information should be based on the most recent assessment or review.
Enter 1 if the individual has one or more known carer.

Disability
Does the adult have a disability?

For the purposes of this data item, the definition of impairment follows Section 6(1) of the Equality Act 2010, which states that:
“A person (P) has a disability if –
(a) P has a physical or mental impairment, and
(b) The impairment has a substantial and long-term adverse effect on P’s ability to carry out normal
day-to-day activities.”
Welsh Government adopts the Social Model of Disability. According to the social model ofdisability, impairment is what has historically been referred to as a “disability” or a health condition. During a social care assessment, the adult’s impairments will be considered to determine if that adult considers themselves to be disabled. Record whether an adult has a disability on 31 March 2026 (or for closed cases, at the time the adult’s care and support plan was closed).

• Yes
• No
• Unknown
If No or Unknown is selected, no other entries should be made in this section.
If Yes is selected, then for each of the specified impairment types that apply, enter 1 if the adult
had an impairment of this type on 31 March 2026 (or for closed cases, at the time the adult’s care
and support plan was closed).

Categories of impairment:
• Sight
• Hearing
• Physical (e.g. gross motor, manual dexterity or mobility)
• Mental illness (not dementia or neurodevelopmental condition)
• Dementia
• Neurodevelopmental condition (e.g. Autistic Spectrum Condition, Attention Deficit
Hyperactivity Disorder, Tourette’s syndrome or learning disability)
• Other (not listed)
• Unknown

Language
Record the adult’s preferred language; this is the language the adult prefers to use to communicate with others. If there are differences between the preferred written or spoken language, use the language in which care and support is provided. Typically, this will be the preferred spoken or face to-face language. See Annex B – Code List Language.

Disability
Does the adult have a disability?

For the purposes of this data item, the definition of impairment follows Section 6(1) of the Equality Act 2010, which states that:
“A person (P) has a disability if –
(a) P has a physical or mental impairment, and
(b) The impairment has a substantial and long-term adverse effect on P’s ability to carry out normal
day-to-day activities.”
Welsh Government adopts the Social Model of Disability. According to the social model of disability, impairment is what has historically been referred to as a “disability” or a health condition. During a social care assessment, the adult’s impairments will be considered to determine if that adult considers themselves to be disabled. Record whether an adult has a disability on 31 March 2026 (or for closed cases, at the time the adult’s care and support plan was closed).

• Yes
• No
• Unknown
If No or Unknown is selected, no other entries should be made in this section.
If Yes is selected, then for each of the specified impairment types that apply, enter 1 if the adult
had an impairment of this type on 31 March 2026 (or for closed cases, at the time the adult’s care
and support plan was closed).

Categories of impairment:
• Sight
• Hearing
• Physical (e.g. gross motor, manual dexterity or mobility)
• Mental illness (not dementia or neurodevelopmental condition)
• Dementia
• Neurodevelopmental condition (e.g. Autistic Spectrum Condition, Attention Deficit
Hyperactivity Disorder, Tourette’s syndrome or learning disability)
• Other (not listed)
• Unknown

Language
Record the adult’s preferred language; this is the language the adult prefers to use to communicate with others. If there are differences between the preferred written or spoken language, use the language in which care and support is provided. Typically, this will be the preferred spoken or face to-face language. See Annex B – Code List Language.

Date latest continuous period of care and support began

This data item seeks to capture the date that the latest continuous period of care and support began; for many adults this date may be a significant time in the past. Reviews of their care and support plan may have occurred throughout this period, and their needs may have changed.

This date should be recorded as DD MM YYYY.

Care and support plan active on 31 March

Enter 1 if the adult had an active care and support plan on 31 March
Enter 0 if the adult did not have an active care and support plan on 31 March

Date care and support plan closed

For those adults who have a plan close within the financial year, please enter the date the care and support plan was closed, regardless of if they have a subsequent plan active on 31 March. A plan closure is when the local authority is no longer providing any care and support to the adult. A local authority may close a plan, but not the case. Do not provide a date of closure if the adult
receives continuous care through the collection year.

This date should be recorded as DD MM YYYY

Reason for care and support plan closure

For those adults whose care and support plans closed during the year and have been recorded above, please enter the most appropriate reason the care and support plan was closed from the list:

1 – Service completed
2 – Transferred or moved to another local authority
3 – Step down to preventative services (and no longer requires ongoing care and support)
4 – Moved to health service (e.g. Continuing Healthcare)
5 – Refused service
6 – Died
7 – Other
Only one category from the above may be chosen. This cannot be left blank for those adults who do not have an active care and support plan on 31 March

Adult Safeguarding

For adults who have started formal safeguarding procedures.

Enter 1 if the adult had enquiries in the collection year where it was determined additional action was required, resulting in a care and support protection plan.
Enter 0 if the adult did not have enquiries in the collection year where it was determined additional action was required, resulting in a care and support protection plan.

Category of safeguarding

This is intended to record safeguarding categories for all adults undergoing safeguarding, regardless of when enquiries were made. Record the category or categories of abuse and neglect recorded on the adult’s Care and Support Protection Plan (where details of abuse or
neglect were included).
The category used should indicate the primary concern at the point additional action was identified.
More than one category may apply.

For each of the specific categories that apply, enter 1 if the category was present at the point additional action was identified. Enter 0 if the category was not present at the point additional action was identified.
• Neglect
• Physical
• Sexual
• Financial
• Emotional/Psychological (only)
Note that emotional/psychological abuse is considered always to occur if one of the other types of abuse occurs. Therefore, it is only recorded here if it occurs in isolation without other types of abuse. If 1 is entered for “emotional/psychological (only)”, all other categories should be recorded as 0.

Residence

*only completed for adults with an active care and support plan as of 31 March

Enter 1 if the adult is in their own home (i.e. residing in the community). This includes where the adult is in a residential care home or supported accommodation on a short-term placement or respite care – but would typically reside at home. This applies to both local authority-provided and private care homes or supported accommodation. Adults in an Adult Placement Scheme (Shared Lives) should be recorded here.
Enter 2 if the adult is living in a residential care home or supported accommodation on a long-term placement. As above, this applies to both local authority-provided and private care homes or supported accommodation.
Enter 3 if the adult is currently being held in the secure estate. Only select 3 if the adult is being held for a term of more than three months.
Enter 88 if this information is not known.
If the individual is not living in a residential care home on a long-term placement or currently being held in the secure estate for a term of more than three months, then they are considered as living in their own home. The responsible local authority is the local authority in which the secure estate is situated.

Current Safeguarding

*only completed for adults with an active care and support plan as of 31 March

Enter 1 if the adult had an active care and support protection plan for adults on 31 March where the local authority considers it necessary to protect an adult from abuse or neglect or a risk of abuse or neglect.
Enter 0 if the adult did not have an active care and support protection plan for adults on 31 March where the local authority considers it necessary to protect an adult from abuse or neglect or a risk of abuse or neglect.
Enter 88 if this information is not known

Types of care and support

The types of care and support being currently provided should be recorded and part of the ongoing
record of care and support. Please select what types of care and support the individual is currently
receiving (i.e. on 31 March). An individual may be provided with more than one type of care and
support, please select all types that the individual is receiving

*only completed for adults with an active care and support plan as of 31 March

For each type of care and support, enter 1 if this is currently being provided to the adult.
Enter 0 if the adult is not currently receiving this type of care and support.
Enter 88 if this information is not known.
Types of care and support:
• Domiciliary care
• Day care
• Respite care or short breaks or replacement care
• Adult Placement Scheme (Shared Lives)
• Supported accommodation or supported living
• Direct payments
• Adult care homes (without nursing)
• Adult care homes with nursing
• Reablement

Has a known carer

Whether the person receives support from an unpaid (informal) carer gives a holistic view of a
person’s support package. It is recognised that there can be multiple unpaid (informal) carers
known to the client and actively providing support. For the purposes of the collection, a value of
‘Yes’ would indicate that at least one carer is known to the client on 31 March.

*only completed for adults with an active care and support plan as of 31 March

This information should be based on the most recent assessment or review.
Enter 1 if the individual has one or more known carer.
Enter 0 if the individual has no identified carer.
Enter 88 if this information is not known.

Caring responsibilities

Please record whether the adult also has caring responsibilities. A carer is someone who provides
or intends to provide care for an adult or disabled child.

*only completed for adults with an active care and support plan as of 31 March

Enter 0 If the adult has no caring responsibilities on 31 March.
Enter 1 if the adult has known caring responsibilities on 31 March and receives known, ongoing support as a carer.
Enter 2 if the adult has known caring responsibilities on 31 March but does not or it is not known whether they receive ongoing support as a carer.
Enter 88 if this information is not known.
An individual will have been offered a carer’s assessment if they have caring responsibilities, regardless of whether they have taken up the offer of assessment and/or carer’s support. This may be in the form of a dual care and support and carer’s plan.

Events

As part of the individual’s ongoing care record, the number of assessments, re-assessments, and reviews completed should be recorded. Please indicate how many of each of these events have occurred in the reporting year for the adult receiving care and support.

This should include any assessments that incorporate detailed or comprehensive assessments
within the process of assessment. Any specialist assessments undertaken as part of the
comprehensive review process should not be counted as separate assessments. See AD/004 for
more information.

*only completed for adults with an active care and support plan as of 31 March

• Number of assessments completed (which may include one or more specialist
assessments)
• Number of re-assessments completed (which may include one or more specialist
assessments)
• Number of reviews completed
