National health and social care workforce plan: analysis of consultation responses

3. Next Steps

The Plan's Part 1: A Framework For Improving Workforce Planning Across NHS Scotland will be published in Summer 2017, setting out priorities to be taken forward and actions to help bring about improvements in workforce planning. The focus of this plan will be NHS Scotland, making coherent links between national, regional and local workforce planning activity where relevant, and including recommendations to improve practical workforce planning.

Part 2 of the Plan will be published later this year to reflect the position regarding workforce planning for social care.
