Phoenix Forensic Consultants

Phoenix also specialises in assessing professionals accused of abuse and other related misconduct issues. Whilst most of these cases will not end up with criminal convictions, the behaviour could still lead to disciplinary action, even dismissal. 

Assessments can be important in helping agencies come to the right decisions. Phoenix has specifically designed professional misconduct models which lend themselves much more to “breach of boundary” concerns.

In many cases, these breach of boundary issues can be treated and reassurance given. Experience has shown that in some cases there has been no need to be concerned. In the area of sexual abuse, false allegations are sometimes made. Urgent referral and assessment can be undertaken to minimise suspension time and the anxiety it creates. Other concerns may arise between adults, such as sexual harassment, sexual impropriety, bullying, etc. Assessment reports following enquiry can be crucial in expediting a satisfactory outcome.
