The Department recently surveyed the local departments of social services to evaluate the extent of interagency coordination on issues relating to the delivery of Protective Services for Adults (PSA). In accordance with Social Services Law and regulations, the delivery of PSA requires the coordination and utilization of community resources. These resources, including personnel from medical, psychiatric, nursing, legal and law enforcement groups, public and private service agencies, advocacy groups and church councils, constitute the PSA service delivery network.
