Near Me in Social Services is a project Iriss has been leading in partnership with the NHS Near Me team and the Scottish Government Technology Enabled Care (TEC) Programme over Autumn/Winter 2020/21. The project is producing new evidence around the priorities, enablers and challenges of using video consulting in social services.
Iriss has supported five services to participate in a rapid Quality Improvement cycle to start using Near Me; provided light touch improvement support to organisations that are setting up Near Me independently within their work, and has developed a Learning Network.
The Learning Network aims to build on and continue the support
to these organisations using Near Me, while increasing the scope of
support to others. Each Learning Network meeting includes speakers
on related topics.
In this episode, Yvonne Leathley, Senior Improvement Adviser at the
Care Inspectorate
speaks about a project to supply digital devices to care homes to
improve connectivity.
