4. Purpose

This paper provides a strategic framework with overarching principles and high-level recommendations, which inform and shape the provision of rehabilitation and recovery services across Scotland for the coronavirus (COVID-19) period and post coronavirus (COVID-19) periods.

The Rehabilitation principles and priorities in this framework should be used by those planning services to ensure the rehabilitation needs of their local population are met. This will involve reviewing delivery in the wake of the coronavirus (COVID-19) to assess whether to continue with prior/existing services, or whether to re-design taking into account new approaches implemented during the pandemic and alternative innovative models of delivery.
