Day Care Services Surgery – 1 June 2022

Day Care Services Surgery – 1 June 2022

Over the past 2 years of the pandemic we have been very aware of the impact that Covid has had upon Care Homes and Home Care services.

One area that may have been overlooked and forgotten about are Day Services which are buildings based.  We at Scottish Care would like to meet with members of Scottish Care to discuss the issues and challenges you have faced over the past 2 years and also the resultant outcomes such as reduced funding and client referrals etc.

We have arranged a one off special surgery webinar session with ALL building based day services (including non-members) and it will take place on:

Wednesday 1st June at 2-3pm.

Please register in advance for this meeting:

After registering, you should receive an email from Zoom with details to join this session.

We would be grateful if you would consider attending this important surgery session. Your host for this session is the Scottish Care CEO Donald Macaskill.

If you are unable to attend please send your comments to Stefanie Callaghan: [email protected]

Looking forward to seeing you on the day.
