To discuss concerns regarding the impact of the 'Safer Staffing' Bill on social care providers and people being supported. The concerns around the bill presented and discussed were: • Regulation 15 of the Social Care and Social Work Improvement Scotland (Requirements for Care Services) Regulations 2011 (S.S.I. 2011/210)- which is straight forward and easy to work with- being revoked and the legislation proposed to replace it has more change in it than previously indicated • Unnecessary extra bureaucracy time and cost around the potential use of a specified workforce planning (staffing level) tool in an already economically tight sector where resources are stretched and we deal with a myriad of legislation requirements inspections/standards and protocols already. • The cost and duty in the bill currently sits with providers and not the commissioners of services. • The potential legislation of required consultation with staff around the tool/method which appears to be an unnecessary additional formal burden. • That the idea of one workforce planning tool for the diversity flexibility dynamic and person centred services provided by the voluntary care providers does not seem to fit modern services. • The lack of focus on and reference to outcomes for the people being supported. • That our sector already has good practice in this area and so we struggle to visualise how this will improve or impact positively on services or work with individualised or dynamic services. • To try and work towards limitation of any negative impact through ensuring the drafting is sound. • That a legal requirement to consult and collaboratively develop any tool that is developed and recommended by SCSWIS (The Care Inspectorate) with voluntary sector providers should be more explicit. | Scottish Government | null | https://www.lobbying.scot/SPS/InformationReturn/SearchInformationReturnDetail/1570 | Type: None | Lobbyist names: Katherine Wainwright | Entity lobbying on behalf of organisation: None | Scottish lobbying register | 143,231 | To discuss concerns regarding the impact of the 'Safer Staffing' Bill on social care providers and people being supported.
