Mental Health Strategic Work Programme
About the Work Programme
The aim of the Mental Health Strategic Work Programme is to:
- Weave together previous initiatives by NHS QIS component organisations
- Learn from experience of previous NHS QIS initiatives in mental health
- Adopt a 'quality improvement' approach which will help mental health services in the implementation of the Mental Health (Care & Treatment) (Scotland) Act 2003
- Focus on outcomes for individual users, building on the results of an audit project supported by NHS QIS
- Develop an information culture where up to date information is appropriately shared and based on a common data set
- Accredit the development of locally agreed Integrated Care Pathways.
