Equipping Professionals
We believe providers of health and care services in Scotland should involve people in their planning and delivery.
They should do this not only because they have to, but also because it improves things for everyone.
We offer practical advice and resources to help health and care staff to engage with people and communities.
We provide different ways for professionals to share their experiences and learn from evidence and from each other.
Equality and Diversity
Everyone has a right to share their opinions and experiences to help shape health and care services.
