Workforce planning, staff training, digital systems and changing the culture are key elements of the More than just words five\-year action plan, working towards the Welsh Government’s aim of ensuring that everyone who wants to can receive their care in the Welsh language.  

  

Speaking at the Eisteddfod Genedlaethol in Tregaron today (2 August) the Minister said:



> “When people are receiving or trying to access care, it is usually when they are at their most vulnerable, so being comfortable in their own language is important.  
> 
>   
> 
> Our research found that for many Welsh speakers, being able to access services in Welsh significantly improved their overall experience and, in many cases, improved their health and wellbeing outcomes. It also showed people often found it difficult to access services in Welsh and were reluctant to ask when Welsh language services were not offered.  
> 
>   
> 
> At the core of our strategy is the principle of the Active Offer. It places a responsibility on health and social care providers to offer services in Welsh, rather than on the patient or service user to have to request them.  
> 
>   
> 
> While progress has been made since our original plan was launched five years ago, we now need to offer more and faster to deliver that offer.”


The plan has been developed by an expert group, following an independent evaluation of the first More than just words five\-year plan.  

  

The group, chaired by Marian Wyn Jones considered patients’ experience, evidence from Welsh Government, the NHS and social care, regulators, professional bodies and from the education and training sectors.  

  

The plan is made up of several actions under five themes:


* Culture and leadership
* Welsh language planning and policies
* Supporting and developing Welsh language skills of the workforce
* Sharing best practice


Progress against the actions will be monitored by a new advisory board.  

  

The Minister added:



> “There are almost 200,000 staff working in health and social care in Wales so this is also a huge opportunity for them to lead the way in contributing to the Welsh Government’s ambition to reach one million Welsh speakers by 2050\.  
> 
>   
> 
> Our health and social care staff have done extraordinary work during the pandemic, and they continue to work under intense pressure. They care deeply about providing the best possible care for people in Wales – for Welsh\-speakers that means providing a service in Welsh. By working together I am sure we can all deliver the ambitions of this plan.”

Mae cynllunio’r gweithlu, hyfforddi staff, systemau digidol a newid y diwylliant yn elfennau allweddol o’r cynllun gweithredu pum mlynedd Mwy na geiriau, sy’n gweithio tuag at nod Llywodraeth Cymru o sicrhau bod gofal drwy gyfrwng y Gymraeg ar gael i bawb sy’n dymuno ei gael.  

  

Heddiw (2 Awst), yn yr Eisteddfod Genedlaethol yn Nhregaron, dywedodd y Gweinidog:



> “Pan fydd pobl yn derbyn gofal neu’n ceisio’i drefnu, fel arfer dyna’r adeg pan fyddan nhw fwyaf bregus. Felly, mae bod yn gyfforddus yn eu hiaith eu hunain yn bwysig.  
> 
>   
> 
> Yn ôl ein gwaith ymchwil, i lawer o siaradwyr Cymraeg, roedd gallu cael gwasanaethau drwy gyfrwng y Gymraeg yn gwella’u profiad cyffredinol yn sylweddol. Mewn llawer o achosion, roedd hynny’n gwella’u canlyniadau o ran iechyd a lles. Dangosodd ein hymchwil hefyd fod pobl yn aml yn ei chael hi’n anodd cael gwasanaethau yn y  
> 
>   
> 
> Gymraeg, a’u bod yn amharod i ofyn pan nad oedd gwasanaethau Cymraeg yn cael eu cynnig.  
> 
>   
> 
> Wrth wraidd ein strategaeth mae egwyddor y Cynnig Rhagweithiol. Mae’n rhoi’r cyfrifoldeb ar y darparwyr iechyd a gofal cymdeithasol i gynnig gwasanaethau yn y Gymraeg, yn hytrach nag ar y claf neu ddefnyddiwr gwasanaeth i orfod gofyn amdanynt.  
> 
> Er bod cynnydd wedi’i wneud ers lansio ein cynllun gwreiddiol bum mlynedd yn ôl, bellach mae angen inni gynnig mwy, yn gyflymach, er mwyn cyflawni’r cynnig hwnnw.”


Mae’r cynllun wedi’i ddatblygu gan grŵp o arbenigwyr, yn dilyn gwerthusiad annibynnol o gynllun pum mlynedd gyntaf Mwy na geiriau.  

  

O dan gadeiryddiaeth Marian Wyn Jones, ystyriodd y grŵp brofiad cleifion a thystiolaeth gan Lywodraeth Cymru, y GIG a gofal cymdeithasol, rheoleiddwyr, cyrff proffesiynol, a’r sectorau addysg a hyfforddiant.  

  

Mae’r cynllun yn cynnwys sawl cam gweithredu, o dan bedair thema:


* Diwylliant ac arweinyddiaeth
* Cynllunio a pholisïau o ran y Gymraeg
* Cefnogi a datblygu sgiliau Cymraeg y gweithlu
* Rhannu arfer da


Bydd y cynnydd yn erbyn y camau gweithredu yn cael ei fonitro gan fwrdd cynghori newydd.  

  

Ychwanegodd y Gweinidog:



> “Mae bron 200,000 o staff yn gweithio ym maes iechyd a gofal cymdeithasol yng Nghymru. Felly, dyma gyfle arbennig iawn hefyd iddyn nhw arwain y ffordd wrth gyfrannu at uchelgais Llywodraeth Cymru o gyrraedd miliwn o siaradwyr Cymraeg erbyn 2050\.  
> 
>   
> 
> Mae ein staff iechyd a gofal cymdeithasol wedi gwneud gwaith eithriadol yn ystod y pandemig, ac maen nhw’n parhau i weithio o dan bwysau mawr. Maen nhw’n angerddol ynglŷn â darparu’r gofal gorau posib i bobl yng Nghymru – i siaradwyr Cymraeg, mae hynny’n golygu darparu gwasanaeth yn y Gymraeg. Drwy gydweithio, rwy’n siŵr y gallwn ni i gyd wireddu uchelgeisiau’r cynllun hwn.”
