Summary

The Health and Care (Staffing) (Scotland) Act 2019 came into force on 1 April 2024. We have a duty to monitor and develop staffing level tools under this legislation. We make recommendations to Scottish Ministers on changes to tools. This ensures they reflect current practice and are up to date. This paper is a summary of recommendations made to Scottish Ministers in October 2024.

The paper was produced by the Healthcare Staffing Programme. It outlines the detail of how work was undertaken and the evidence to support the recommendations.
