The safe staffing programme team has been working hard behind the scenes to produce a series of podcasts on the implementation of the Health and Care (Staffing) (Scotland) Act 2019 (HSCA). The Act commenced on 1 April 2024, setting out requirements for safe staffing across all health and care services in Scotland.
In this series of podcasts, we find out how the Care Inspectorate, registered services, professional bodies, integrated and local authorities prepared for the Act. We also explore what it means for people, young adults and children experiencing care, and staff working on the ground.
The podcasts were co-produced with HCSA stakeholders and partners. We hope you enjoy them.
