Elin Wyn will chair the board, working alongside seven other members to ensure progress is made against the actions set\-out in the five\-year plan, More than just words, which was launched last year.  

  

Speaking at the National Eisteddfod today the Minister said:



> The aim of our plan is to create a health and social care service in which people are actively offered their care in Welsh.  
> 
>   
> 
> Research has shown that being able to access services in Welsh can significantly improve people’s experience and, in many cases, improve their health and wellbeing outcomes. But 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.  
> 
>   
> 
> The board I am announcing today have a wealth of experience and knowledge of the use of the Welsh language in health and social care services. They will make recommendations to me on areas where further progress could be made and if there are emerging concerns where ambition is not being met.  
> 
>   
> 
> We’ve already made significant progress in the first year of our plan, including introducing mandatory Welsh\-awareness training for NHS staff and developed workforce planning guidance for Welsh language skills. Welsh language standards have been placed on health regulators and work has started to place tutors within health boards and trusts to create confident Welsh speakers.  
> 
>   
> 
> But there is much more to be done and I look forward to working with the board and receiving their first progress report later this year.

Elin Wyn fydd yn cadeirio'r bwrdd, gan weithio gyda saith aelod arall i sicrhau bod cynnydd yn cael ei wneud yn unol â’r camau a nodir yn y cynllun pum mlynedd, Mwy na geiriau, a lansiwyd y llynedd.  

  

Wrth siarad yn yr Eisteddfod Genedlaethol heddiw dywedodd y Gweinidog:



> Nod ein cynllun yw creu gwasanaeth iechyd a gofal cymdeithasol lle mae pobl yn cael cynnig eu gofal yn Gymraeg yn rhagweithiol.  
> 
>   
> 
> Mae ymchwil wedi dangos bod gallu cael gwasanaethau yn y Gymraeg yn gallu gwella profiad pobl yn sylweddol ac, mewn llawer o achosion, bod eu canlyniadau o ran iechyd a lles yn well hefyd. Ond dangosodd hefyd fod pobl yn aml yn ei chael hi'n anodd cael gafael ar wasanaethau yn y Gymraeg ac yn amharod i ofyn os nad yw gwasanaethau Cymraeg yn cael eu cynnig.  
> 
>   
> 
> Mae gan y bwrdd rwy'n ei gyhoeddi heddiw gyfoeth o brofiad a gwybodaeth o ran y defnydd o’r Gymraeg mewn gwasanaethau iechyd a gofal cymdeithasol. Byddant yn gwneud argymhellion i mi ynghylch meysydd lle gellid gwneud cynnydd pellach ac os daw pryderon i’r amlwg nad yw uchelgais yn cael ei gwireddu.  
> 
>   
> 
> Rydym eisoes wedi gwneud cynnydd sylweddol ym mlwyddyn gyntaf ein cynllun, gan gynnwys cyflwyno hyfforddiant ymwybyddiaeth Gymraeg gorfodol i staff y GIG a datblygu canllawiau cynllunio'r gweithlu ar gyfer sgiliau Cymraeg. Mae safonau'r Gymraeg wedi eu gosod ar reoleiddwyr iechyd ac mae gwaith wedi dechrau i leoli tiwtoriaid mewn byrddau iechyd ac ymddiriedolaethau i greu siaradwyr Cymraeg hyderus.  
> 
>   
> 
> Ond mae llawer mwy i'w wneud ac rwy’n edrych ymlaen at weithio gyda'r bwrdd a chael yr adroddiad cynnydd cyntaf ganddynt yn ddiweddarach eleni.
