Annotation | The White Paper, "Aiming for excellence: modernising social work services in Scotland" (March 1999) set out proposals to develop National Care Standards for a wide range of care services in Scotland. The Scottish Commission for the Regulation of Care (SCRC) takes over responsibilities for registration and inspection of care services on 1 April 2002. The standards outlined include services which have not previously been subject to regulation: adult placement, and day care services. As with previous Scottish draft national care standards, each is based on six principles of dignity, safety, choice, privacy, diversity, and potential. The standards cover various stages of service use: before using the service; settling in; enjoying life; choosing to move; and expressing views. (RH). |
