Building the connections: Self-directed support | IRISS - The Institute ...

IRISS is a partner in an event organised by the ALLIANCE, Care and Support Providers Scotland, Self-Directed Support Scotland, Lothian Centre for Independent Living, Independent Living in Scotland and the Joint Improvement Team, to explore the future of self-directed support within an integrated health and social care system.

The one-day event aims to start a dialogue between individuals, the third sector, statutory agencies and the Scottish Government on the connection between self-directed support and an integrated health and social care system. It will focus on identifying key actions to progress the personalisation agenda for health and social care services and self-directed support.

Aims of event:

  • To stimulate dialogue on the relationship between self-directed support and person-centred health agendas within the framework of greater integration of health and social care
  • To seek the views of people who are disabled or with long term conditions on their experiences of using self-directed support to achieve health and social care outcomes
  • To create an open space for a broad range of stakeholders to discuss complex issues, questions, barriers and opportunities on the integration of self-directed health and social care
  • To establish key messages to inform the future of the self-directed support and person-centred agendas to improve the lives of people who use services.

The event will take place on Tuesday 5 March from 9.00am to 4.30pm in Edinburgh.?Further information and booking is available on the event website.
