The Care Inspectorate believes that people in Scotland should experience a better quality of life as a result of accessible, excellent services which are designed and delivered to reflect their individual needs and promote their rights.
Our vision at the Care Inspectorate is that people in Scotland experience a better quality of life as a result of accessible, excellent services which are designed and delivered to reflect their individual needs and promote their rights.
The right services at the right time, meeting the needs of the individual,
Recognising that we are all unique and to live well we need that personalised care
In this room, people who use services directly, people who provide services, people who commission services as well as the folk who regulate services.
In the blink of an eye we could use those services, hearing the voice of the service user.
