The group is an advocacy/influencing group working to ensure that the full impact of bladder and bowel dysfunction on the individual and society is understood.
@chronicpainsco1@It has been awful hearing what pain and misery people have been living with and how many patients have been completely ignored and silenced. Great to hear this work is being reignited. Much needed.
The law requires that “the range of options available in the patients case is considered”. We have rights to be involved in decisions about our own health and treatment. It is crucial that the NHS centre for IC is funded appropriately to facilitate this choice
.@DignityVoices@scotgov@Aging_Research Fabulous Award winning Centre &staff. Needs the funding restored so that every person has a choice to person Centered holistic care. It also needs better funding 4 research & development & a focus on succession planning 2 ensure a future.
I suspect I was reflecting the feelings of an entire nation here! I know everyone is tired of Covid and of all the restrictions on our lives. So I want to take a moment to say ‘thank you’ for the sacrifices you are making - and ask you, please, to stick with it 🙏
It is important the government funds are open to transparency. Are we getting value for this money or are they simply throwing money at the problem and getting no return?
#accountability is sooo important. Governments can assign funds for health, but where's the 'checks and balances' to make sure those funds are applied as intended?

@lizahoran@eventchris Ethical care is essential in a world where we are continually bombarded with corporate nonsense to substantiate cuts to services. @NicolaSturgeon correct when you have to look at well-being and the growth of a country being more than mere GDP, if only this could be materialised
Hoping for some meaningful discussions with outcomes to support active management of pain. Can’t believe how some people have been treated. Like to blame Covid, alas it has been going on much longer than that unfortunately. Time for proper debate & NEW blood to move this forward?
@ScotGovFM @JeaneF1MSP @jasonleitch @MilesBriggsMSP @RonaMackayMSP @LewisMacdMSP @MonicaLennon7 Think warrants a rethink. Seems barbaric in these times that patients&family should suffer like this Look @ good examples- Centre for integrative care provides compassion at its roots
