Scottish Care launches new human right report – What does a Human Right to Social Care Look Like?

Scottish Care is publishing a new report for the final day of the Care Home Gathering. This report, written by Scottish Care CEO, Dr Donald Macaskill, seeks to describe what such a human right to social care could look like in practice.

The paper briefly revisits a previous report The Human Right to Social Care’ which argued that social care should be seen as a human right distinct from but complementary to the human right to health.

The new report, titled What does a Human Right to Social Care Look Like?: A perspective for Scotland 2021 is available below.
