The partnership group is well established and work to ensure that in times of need each key area of children and young people’s wellbeing is addressed through a multi-agency approach. SCMA is proud to be a key part of this team which delivers early interventions for these families through a comprehensive and co-ordinated suite of services developed around wellbeing needs.”
The Quality Improvement Awards have been established to celebrate and showcase the fantastic range of quality improvement practice that has been taking place across the length and breadth of Scotland to make services the best they possibly can be for babies, children, young people and their families in all aspects of their lives.
Quality Improvement is helping to strengthen services and to give children the best start in life, with equal opportunities to thrive, learn and succeed. All of the improvement work aims to make services the best they possibly can be so as to reduce inequalities and get it right for every child.
The Awards Ceremony will take place on 13 November at the Radisson Blu Hotel, Glasgow.
