Accurate information is essential. A number of &#8216;apps are avallable for smartphones and tablet devices which claim to help with recording and convey. ing the information associated with &#8216;M\/ETHANE&#8217;, but you should only use these if instructed to do so by your police force.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: medium; line-height: normal; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">Out of all the services that may attend such an incident, only the police will be constantly alert to the possibility that a crime has been committed, and that the emergency, major, or critical inc dent could also be a crime scene (see 11.2). For example, after a road traffic collision, consideration must be given as to whether the driver was under the influence of drink or drugs; and after a fall from a height, did the woman fall or was she pushed; is this a natural or a suspicious death? Police oficers should be suspicious and be alert to any signatures or characteristic signs that there is something wrong. For example, a witness may remark &#8216;funny thing that man hanging roundall maring; oran oficer may spotan article at the scene (or nearby), such as an empty suitcase. This might suggest that al is not what it seems, and problem-solving skills can help clarity ideas.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: medium; line-height: normal; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><\/span><br style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: medium; line-height: normal; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">96 Chapter 10 initial Investigation, Arrest, Detention, and Disposal<br style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">NDM Stage 1&#8211;Gather Information<\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"font-size: small; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">\n<li style=\"font-size: 16px; line-height: normal; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><\/span><span style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">\ufeff\ufeffWho is the male?

The models are similar, although the NDM is focused around the Code of Ethics, and includes review as one of the essential elements. The NDM relates to ACPO&#8217;s 2011 Statement of Mission and Values, and ACTO suggested it would support decision-making which had been undertaken by police officers who had followed the NDM; the 10PC will provide similar support.

As professionals, the police have to be able to make decisions in uncertain conditions, and the first consideration should be the public safety and security. When judging possible risks from decisions the possible benefits and harm must be taken into account, and it must be accepted that harm can never be totally prevented. Therefore, a decision involving risk should be judged by how good the decision-making was, and not by the actual outcome, so any police officer who has followed these principles when making a decision should be supported. The principles clearly state that making decisions concerning risk is inherently difficult, and that the extent to which an officer&#8217;s decisions present risks should be judged in comparison with others in a similar professional position, and that deciding whether to record decisions about risk is a matter of protessional judgement. It is emphasized that examples of good risk taking should be ident ted and shared, and that communication and cooperation with other agencies will help improve decision-making (CoP, 2013g).<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-size: 16px; line-height: normal; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><\/span><span style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">553<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"font-size: medium; line-height: normal; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><\/span><br style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: medium; line-height: normal; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">and Support<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: medium; line-height: normal; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">Discharge of a trainee police officer<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: medium; line-height: normal; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">malios condi?

For example, there has been a shift in police practice from being responsive to being proactive, and more emphasis is placed on preventing crime.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: medium; line-height: normal; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><\/span><br style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: medium; line-height: normal; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">5.5 Decision-making in Policing 79<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: medium; line-height: normal; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">in recent years policing has been informed increasingly by the need to demonstrate value for money (sometimes through reductions in police staffing levels) and to meet targets set by gov-emment. This form of managertalism has been criticized by some chief officers because it leads to police others becoming overconcerned with meeting targets, and because it is not always easy to measure the things that the police need to do.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: medium; line-height: normal; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">The role of police in internationar peacekeeping (alongside a military presence and other supporting agencies from ditterent parts of the world) demands an ethical consistency across different organizations with very different values and traditions. This might sometimes include British police officers working alongside officers from other countries where there may be widespread corruption and the status of police officers is very low.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: medium; line-height: normal; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><\/span><br style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: medium; line-height: normal; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">Poor pay for the police<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: medium; line-height: normal; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">LOw status of poice<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: medium; line-height: normal; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">Note that there are no certain answers to this exercise, you might argue that it is the for status that is causing the low pay<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: medium; line-height: normal; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">One of the key skills trainee porce oficers have to develop during training is the ability to apply discretion (see 5.5.3), and this is unked with ethics. For example, imagine a trainee on Supervised Patrol and her tutor are called to deal with a theft at a supermarket, with instruc-tons to investigate the matter and decide upon a course of action.

Enforcing the law might not be the most appropriate response, but police officers have to be prepared to justify the reasons for any decision (see 5.5.2 on the NDM).<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: medium; line-height: normal; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><br \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: medium; line-height: normal; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><a style=\"cursor: auto;\">M\/ETHANE &#8211; JESIP Website<\/a><br \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: medium; line-height: normal; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><a style=\"cursor: auto;\"><a style=\"cursor: auto;\">National decision model | College of Policing<\/a><br \/><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: medium; line-height: normal; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><a style=\"cursor: auto;\"><a style=\"cursor: auto;\"><br \/><\/a><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>only refer UK policing.
