Scottish Federation of Housing Associations (SFHA) was one of a number of interested built environment organisations who attended the group which is being supported by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors and Built Environment Forum Scotland. Issues highlighted by SFHA at the meeting were - difficulty housing associations have in getting agreement from owners or private landlords to participate in common repairs to tenements; impact this is having on the state of repair of many mixed tenure tenements; the fact that some housing associations who are minority owners in a close are selling flats and looking to buy properties in other stairs where they are the majority owner. SFHA suggested as possible solutions - a common housing quality standard compulsion for owners and private landlords to take part in common repairs requiring all owners to contribute to tenement sinking funds.

The meeting had been convened because a number of MSPs had concerns about the issue and wanted to look at potential solutions that might be brought forward. Scottish Federation of Housing Associations (SFHA) was one of a number of interested built environment organisations who attended the group which is being supported by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors and Built Environment Forum Scotland. Issues highlighted by SFHA at the meeting were - difficulty housing associations have in getting agreement from owners or private landlords to participate in common repairs to tenements; impact this is having on the state of repair of many mixed tenure tenements; the fact that some housing associations who are minority owners in a close are selling flats and looking to buy properties in other stairs where they are the majority owner. SFHA suggested as possible solutions - a common housing quality standard compulsion for owners and private landlords to take part in common repairs requiring all owners to contribute to tenement sinking funds.

Royal Pharmaceutical Society
Meeting with Annie Wells MSP Member for Glasgow. | Location: Scottish Parliament Edinburgh EH99 1SP | Type: Face to face | The purpose of the meeting was to introduce the Royal Pharmaceutical Society in Scotland (the professional body for pharmacists) and promote the work of the pharmacy profession across all sectors. We outlined how the profession across all sectors is currently contributing to health care and the NHS and what we recommend for it to be further enabled such as supporting a dedicated pharmacist role in care homes supporting the Pharmacy First approach which currently improves individuals' access to treatment in community for uncomplicated urinary tract infections and impetigo supporting the renewed and expanded Minor Ailment Service in community pharmacy (available to all not just to those under the old exempt prescription charges criteria) currently being piloted in Inverclyde and supporting the role of the methadone service and how the re-fresh of the alcohol and drugs strategy could be improved by enabling greater pharmacist input. We also discussed the recent headlines regarding the role of antidepressants and advocated that pharmacists (as a formal and fully integrated member of the mental health team) should lead on monitoring and medication reviews especially in those first crucial weeks of a new medication. We advocated pharmacists' role in supporting people with managing their long term condition(s) and outlined our recommendations for how they could be further utilised for patient benefit namely that: 1. Pharmacists providing direct patient care should have the opportunity to train to be a prescriber fully utilising those skills as part of the multidisciplinary approach to managing and supporting people with long term conditions. 2. The patient journey will be made easier by enabling pharmacists to directly refer to appropriate health and social care professionals improving patient access to care and reducing the number of unnecessary appointments. 3. Patients will benefit from further integration of pharmacists into their multidisciplinary team ensuring support at every stage of their journey from prevention through to treatment and management of their long term condition(s). 4. All pharmacists directly involved in patient care should have full read and write access to the patient health record with patient consent in the interest of high quality safe and effective patient care. We stressed that clear national information governance would be helpful to support all health professionals to share appropriate information. We discussed how these recommendations would improve patient care and help reduce pressures elsewhere in the NHS e.g. reduce pressures on GP appointments and A&E attendance and reduce medicines-related hospital admissions.
