With budgets across health and social care set to be fully integrated by April 2016, and following the submission of local care plans in April 2015, this seminar provided an opportunity to discuss progress being made towards the integration of health and social care in Scotland.
Sessions considered the impact of changes on service delivery in different parts of Scotland and what more can be done to disseminate examples of best practice. Delegates discussed the implication of the transition on the workforce and both the impact of integration on the third and independent sectors and within the wider context of public health in Scotland.
The conference brought together policymakers from the Scottish Government and Parliament with health professionals, representatives of health and social care organisations, trade unions, local government, representatives of healthcare and pharmaceutical industries, academia, interested and affected charities and user groups.
