Guidance intended for practitioners and service leads that work with children, young people and families. This guidance clarifies who would be the appropriate practitioner to fulfil this role.
Practice Guidance – The Role Of The Named Person
This is the second of a Practice Guidance series to support practitioners and managers embed and implement Getting it right for every child (GIRFEC) into their everyday practice. This guidance should be read in conjunction with the Scottish Government's GIRFEC Policy Statement, which refreshes our GIRFEC Values and Principles, and the Core Components of the approach.
The Guidance series is designed to provide further information on the key roles of GIRFEC, Assessment of Wellbeing, how to use the National Practice Model and to guide our practice and provide clarity and confidence in Information sharing.
