Health and Social Care Integration Partnerships: reporting guidance

6 Summary

1.1 These Performance reports are key to ensuring Partnerships and their local communities are clear on how health and social care integration is performing, and therefore it is the intention of this guidance to give as much flexibility as possible in the content and format of the reports whilst ensuring that the minimum requirements are met, as set out in the regulations.

1.2 Partnerships are expected and encouraged to include additional relevant information beyond the minimum set out here in order to build as full and accurate an assessment as possible as to how the integration of health and social care is delivering for people and communities, and be presented in a way that is clear for non-experts. The Scottish Government will continue to offer support to Partnerships in order to develop a Performance Report which best suits their own local needs.
