New Care Cameo launched: #careaboutcare

New Care Cameo launched: #careaboutcare

Scottish Care is delighted to today (Monday 12 February) launch the fifth in our Care Cameo series, entitled ‘#careaboutcare’.

In 2016, Scottish Care began sharing blogs via our website as a means of better sharing the work of the Scottish Care team, good practice examples from our member services and developments
taking place in the social care sector. In 2017, the frequency of blogs was increased to weekly.  The blogs have covered a wide range of issues and themes and have provided compelling evidence of the astonishing range of care and support which is offered by the independent sector across Scotland.

This particular Care Cameo comprises of a short collection of some of the best and most widely read of the blogs, illustrative of the range of contributions, issues and styles we have featured throughout the year.

The Care Cameo series is designed to present short but challenging sketches of various issues and to provide a forum to encourage and foster debate on a whole range of issues important for the delivering of care and support for older individuals across Scotland.

The blogs have provided a valuable avenue for Scottish Care to engage with our members and partners, and we hope that you have found them interesting to read.

We hope this Care Cameo inspires you to engage with or revisit more of the blogs, and to consider sharing your stories with us in 2018. We will continue to share blogs on the Scottish Care website and Twitter page on a weekly basis, and would love to hear from you!
