Adult social care, like children's social care, has long been a part of local government. Given the similarity of the remit between the two then I can't see why that isn't the most appropriate place for them.
But the responsibility for these patients doesn't fall solely to adult social care. Groups that discuss cases will often comprise of adult social care, children's social care, adult safeguarding in the NHS, children's safeguarding in the NHS, police, mental health services, drug and alcohol treatment services, drug and alcohol charities that provide a local support service, mental health charities that offer a local support service, council housing services, housing and tenancy support services, domestic abuse services... The list continues.

Oh wait, was that adult social care?
Another bit that's been devolved to the local government and axed?
