adult protection

From adult (“a fully grown human”) + protection (“the process of keeping someone safe”). The incontinence sense is a euphemism for keeping an adult safe from (protected against) accidents.

- Policies and actions in place for the protection of (sometimes vulnerable) adults; adult safeguarding. I am not in favor of the block grant approach to social services. I feel that the elderly will take a second or third or fourth place seat to other special interest groups. The adult protection should be given priority status with child protection and other domestic violence concerns.

- Used other than figuratively or idiomatically: see adult, protection. (i.e. protection by adults) All children need adult protection, but not all adults deserve to have children.
