Residential Rehabilitation Services: recommendations on clinical governance
This report summarises the findings and recommendations of the Future of Residential Rehabilitation Working Group on the improvement of clinical governance of Residential Rehabilitation Services in Scotland
Implementation Considerations
- Legislative review may be required to close regulatory gaps and it is acknowledged that this may be challenging to implement and will require cross government work.
- Workforce development will require investment and collaboration with professional bodies.
- There may be resource implications for regulatory bodies as a result of any changes to regulation and inspection.
- Data expansion will depend on Public Health Scotland’s capacity to adapt the National Dataset.
- Risks include variability in provider readiness and potential resistance to mandatory framework participation.
