Welcome to the Scottish Government's Children and Young People's
Health Support Group website.
The Children and Young People's Health Support Group is an
expert Ministerial advisory group on children and young people's
health in Scotland.
The Group focuses on the delivery of improvements in health
outcomes and health services for children and young people.
The membership consists of a wide range of representatives
from key professional groups and decision makers, including
from the voluntary sector, medicine, nursing, allied health
professions, local authority social work and education, from
services across Scotland.
The Support Group's aim is to ensure measurable improvement
in the provision of health care, health improvement and health
outcomes for children and young people in Scotland. It provides
expert advice to Scottish Ministers on the development and
improvement of children and young people's health and health
services and supports the NHS in Scotland to manage implementation
of national policy, strengthen local service provision and
delivery. The Support Group also provides expert advice on
workforce planning and development, national planning, integrated
working and quality improvement. Another role of the Support
Group is to act as a catalyst for the dissemination and implementation
of best practice nationally, regionally and locally and supports
the work of NHS Quality Improvement Scotland in developing
and reviewing standards for children and young people's health.
I hope you find this website interesting and informative
