Visiting people

Themed visiting programme 

We carry out three themed visits each year to individuals who receive care and treatment in similar kinds of service. Themed visits help us to highlight common issues for service users across Scotland. They also help us to compare individual experiences and to share good practice across Scotland. Reports from our 2008 visits are available from our ReportsHub.
