National Care Service - making sure your voice is heard: regional forums - easy read findings summary

In summer 2023, we held events across Scotland as part of our work to co-design the National Care Service (NCS). The events covered different themes. This easy-read report contains feedback on the Making sure your voice is heard theme.


What is next for the National Care Service

The Scottish Government wants the National Care Service by 2026. We are now working to improve the social care system.

Events will help us to make the National Care System, its policies, and the National Care Service (Scotland) Bill better.

A Bill is a proposed law that needs to be passed by the Parliament before it could become a law. The Scottish Parliament will vote on the National Care Standards (Scotland) Bill in January 2024.

Over the next 18 months we will continue designing the National Care Standards.

We will involve people who have accessed social care support. We will also involve groups of people whose voices currently are not being heard.

We will keep improving the social care sector for the already existing staff and to make it a good profession to work for.
