Work with Tayside Partners ( Dundee, NHS Tayside, Angus, & Perth & Kinross) to review their provision of equipment for Children, has recently concluded with positive outcomes for the services. All Partners report improvements in the pathways and more responsive provision of equipment, with these improvements supported by jointly delivered training modules to extend assessment roles between the professions. A ‘core’ stock has been agreed which will help standardise service provision, and a new joint tender and contract award has identified significant potential savings. Please see the attached reports for more information.
