About us
How we work
Everything we do, we do with others.
Our values say how we want to be with our partners and our staff.
We work with others to create a Scotland where everybody thrives.
We’ve worked closely with local authorities to:
- help them identify and link data on child poverty
- enhance their understanding of communities
- shape priorities
We are always looking for new ways of working more flexibly and effectively.
We have taken our health and social care data and created a 'whole system model'.
This helps service planners identify issues in patient flow and capacity before they happen.
We are people-centred and outcomes-focused.
We are continually seeking to improve.
With our partners in NHS24, our work informing the public about COVID-19 vaccines was shortlisted for the Holyrood Digital Health and Social Care Awards.
We value the contributions and perspectives of others, including:
- people with lived experience
- professionals
- organisations
We co-produced our drugs death early warning system with substance users.
This may help the system better identify risks of drug-related deaths.
We:
- seek to deliver what we promise
- are a trusted voice
A recent survey found that 80% of people in Scotland have heard of us, and of them, 84% trust us.
