Add a child to the Dynamic Support Register

How to refer a child to be added to the DSR
You can refer a child to be placed on the DSR if you are in a health and social care team.
What to do to add someone to the DSR
You must get consent from the individual or young person for their details to be added to the register.
Parents or carers must provide consent for children under 16.
If a child cannot consent, you can get consent from the person with legal responsibility.
If a young person is over 16, you can use the Mental Capacity Act to assess if they have capacity to consent to be added to the register. If they do not have capacity, then the lead agency must follow the best interest decision process.
