Scottish Care launches Care Home Survey

Scottish Care launches Care Home Survey

Scottish Care has decided to undertake a survey of the nature and extent of the current status and challenges facing the Care Home sector in Scotland.

We are aware that we are undertaking this research in the midst of ongoing discussions and negotiations around form. However the information and data which we are asking for will be invaluable in evidencing the status of the sector and the issues of concern and priority.

This is a major piece of work which will form the basis with other research for a Report on Care Home services in Scotland. This report will be published as soon as practicable.

The survey explores issues such as workforce challenges, including recruitment and retention; financial and operational sustainability and wider stakeholder relationships

The survey can be accessed at https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/DPQJST2

The survey closes on the survey by the 10th March
