As the new First Minister comes into post, RCN Scotland is calling on the Scottish government to get to grips with the workforce crisis that is facing our health and social care services and focus on delivering safe and effective care for the people of Scotland.
Scotland’s safe staffing legislation - the Health and Care (Staffing) (Scotland) Act 2019 – came into force last month. We want to understand and measure the impact of the Act.
RCN Scotland has welcomed confirmation from the Scottish government that staff working in health and social care can now have access to FFP3 masks based on risk assessment and personal preferences.
