Recruitment, retention, regulation and representation: The 4 R’s survey

Recruitment, retention, regulation and representation: The 4 R’s survey

Throughout 2017, recruitment and retention challenges intensified for care home, care at home and housing support organisations throughout Scotland.  With the demand for adult social services increasing, how can providers best attain the new National Health and Care Standards, meet regulatory and registration qualification requirements and attract and retain a dedicated, compassionate workforce in 2018?

We have created a short survey for Scottish Care members which should take no longer than 10-15 minutes to complete.   This survey does not look for detailed data about your service but instead asks you to provide qualitative information about your experiences, thoughts, ideas and solutions relating to recruitment, retention, regulation and representation.

Access the survey here: https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/4RSurvey

We aim to use the information provided to clearly articulate your experiences of providing care in Scotland – and to positively influence policy makers at a local and national level.

The findings of this survey will be launched at an event in Glasgow on Thursday 15th March.  More information about this event will be circulated in the next week.

We very much appreciate you taking time to complete this survey.  Please complete one response per service, not per organisation.

The survey will close on Wednesday 31 January.

If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to contact Becca Gatherum – [email protected].

Thank you
