Daft dad, ventured into the world of HSCP commissioning, passionate about delivering better outcomes for people using social care services

[mckechneil_83 @mckechneil]

I couldn't agree more @ccpscotland @ScotGovFM paying the least to those who are highly skilled, compassionate and committed to improving outcomes for some of our most vulnerable members of society is quite frankly unethical. Please treat social care with the respect it deserves.

@CTilburyMakeup Thanks have DM'd you.

[mckechneil_83 @mckechneil]

@CTilburyMakeup really disappointed in your customer service, I ordered a gift from your website for Mothers Day earlier this month & despite chasing your CS team twice for updates, I have received nothing back. Terrible service.

[mckechneil_83 @mckechneil]

Great to hear from Eddie Follan of @COSLA discussing their commitment to working collaboratively to address long standing challenges affecting the delivery social care. @cosla committed to embedding ethical commissioning now, no need to wait for the NCS. #keepcalmandcollaborate

[mckechneil_83 @mckechneil]

Really interesting to hear the legal perspective from Robin Fallas from @MacRoberts we have a flexible set of procurement regs and a current legal framework that can be used to embed ethical commissioning & procurement to support change. #keepcalmandcollaborate

[mckechneil_83 @mckechneil]

Great quote from @ccpscotland CEO @r_cackett "ethical commissioning and procurement are the beating heart of social care reform"

Next up is Robin Fallas from @MacRoberts

#keepcalmamdcollaborate

[mckechneil_83 @mckechneil]

Great to hear @r_cackett share @ccpscotland vision for social care, priorities being collaboration & partnerships between providers, individuals & commissioners. Primary focus is improving outcomes for people & giving power to supported people. #keepcalmandcollaborate 👏

The NCS should be about improving social care for those who recieve & rely on services & for staff delivering services, it shouldn't be about a power struggle. Perhaps we should reflect on why ministers felt the need to include a section on transfer of functions...

[COSLA @COSLA]

The @scotgov plans for a National Care Service as they currently stand will not work for service users or communities, @COSLA said today.

[mckechneil_83 @mckechneil]

We also cannot let the establishment of the National Care Service be used as a reason to delay/derail social care reform, such as access to care, abolishment of charges, Fair Work and the implementation of ethical commissioning.
