Scottish Care responds to National Care Standards Consultation

Scottish Care responds to National Care Standards Consultation

The Scottish Government recently ran a public consultation on the new National Health and Social Care Standards, to which Scottish Care submitted a response.

This response was informed by the National Care Standards Consultation event which Scottish Care ran for members on 10 January 2017.  Thanks to all those who participated.

Scottish Care’s response can be accessed here.

Now that the consultation has closed, the Scottish Government will review and analyse the responses.   The Project Board and Development Group will consider the findings and a consultation report will be published in Spring 2017.

The final Standards will be published in Spring 2017, and will be implemented from Spring 2018.

For more information about the new Standards, visit http://www.newcarestandards.scot/
