What delegates came to discuss…
This conference will examine next steps for policy and look at measures that can be taken to drive improvement in service provision, foster greater cohesion within the system, and support the care workforce.
The discussion follows the publication of the Independent Review of Adult Social Care in Scotland earlier this year.
We are pleased to be able to include a keynote session on the Review’s recommendations and improving adult social care with Peter Macleod, Chief Executive, Care Inspectorate, alongside Lorraine Gray, Chief Executive, Scottish Social Services Council. The chairs are Christine Jardine MP; and Dr Philippa Whitford MP, Shadow SNP Spokesperson for Health and Social Care.
In addition to discussion on the Review, the agenda will bring out latest thinking on:
- what can be learned from the experience of adult social care during the pandemic
- priorities for supporting the workforce and meeting fair work principles
- the role of sector-wide collaboration in delivering system reform
- enabling community-based support systems
