Introduction to Getting It Right For Everyone (GIRFE)
The ALLIANCE spoke with Scottish Government to find out about Getting It Right For Everyone (GIRFE), a new way of working that aims to put the person at the heart of every decision about their own health and social care. GIRFE is a proposed multi-agency approach of support and services that will support people from young adulthood to end of life care. We spoke to the Minister for Social Care, Mental Wellbeing and Sport, and the four GIRFE professional leads within Scottish Government, to ask them what GIRFE is all about.
Equally Valued: What does the ALLIANCE actually do?
Join us on a special episode of the Equally Valued Podcast as we delve into the inner workings of the Health and Social Care Alliance Scotland (the ALLIANCE), unveiling their new 5-year strategy and visionary approach for the future. Explore how this leading organisation, with over 3,000 national and local third sector members, collaborates with the government, NHS, and various sectors to shape Scotland’s healthcare landscape. Our thought-provoking discussion with ALLIANCE leaders uncovers their vision for the future and the transformative initiatives driving their impact.
This series invites projects funded by the Self Management Fund to present the impact and learning they have recorded whilst delivering activities and services to individuals they work with.
Spina Bifida Hydrocephalus Scotland is a national organisation that provides information, support and projects to all those affected by spina bifida, hydrocephalus and allied conditions. Iona Campbell, Project Manager in the Clinical Innovation and Research team, shares the learning from their funded project which supports people over the age of 35 with ageing and life transitions.
