Delivering for Health
Delivering for Health maps out the Scottish Executive's plans to
implement the recommendations of the National Framework for Service
Change.
Its focus is on shifting towards more preventative medicine and
more continuous care in the community.
Key features include:
- improving help and support so that people with long-term
conditions can play an increasing role in managing their condition
themselves
- treating carers as partners in the provision of
care.
The document sets out how people who need specialist treatment
in hospital will get access to a good, safe service provided by the
right person even if that means they have to travel, while those
who are older, frailer or liable to frequent hospital admission
will get co-ordinated care provided locally.
