Summary

The Care Inspectorate and Healthcare Improvement Scotland have redeveloped our approach to joint inspections. Our inspections seek to address the following question:

How effectively is the partnership working together, strategically and operationally, to deliver seamless services that achieve good health and wellbeing outcomes for adults?

In order to address the question over the broad spectrum of adult health and social care services, we are conducting a rolling programme of themed inspections. These look at how integration of services positively supports people’s experiences and outcomes. These thematic inspections do not consider the quality of specialist care for the specific care group.

This report identifies strengths and also makes recommendations for improvement.
