POLICY: RCN Scotland submission to the NHS targets review

RCN Scotland contribution to the principles of the Scottish Government review of NHS targets.

The RCN has been working hard for some months now, in partnership across sectors and professions, to prompt a debate on measuring success and to re-set our current approach to health and wellbeing targets. We are pleased that this Government review has been established, with you as Chair, to recommend options for change.

This is a short submission from the RCN on the principles for the review which includes the Executive Summary of our recent publication “Measuring Success: Principles for a new approach to improving health and wellbeing in Scotland” which gives further detail on the RCN’s position.
