Health and Social Care Improvement Team

Culmination of work in Ayrshire & Arran. Care and Health staff worked alongside people living at home with a neurological condition (& family members). We used coffee, cake, and good conversations to move from blank pages to clear priorities for a new local network.

Today the Care Inspectorate & HIS launch the joint quality improvement Reducing Stress & Distress Programme for care homes & hospitals. @lynnflannigan1 @EAMacahp @CMOcraigmo @GarethHammond5 @HeatherAHP @CarrieD112 ihub.scot/news/join-the-…
