Delivering Caring for Ayrshire
The Delivering Caring for Ayrshire vision is clear: for people to receive the care they need as close to home as possible. This means building strong community services, while still ensuring quick, safe and high quality access to specialist care when it’s needed.
Health and care services across Ayrshire and Arran are experiencing growing demand and changing expectations. At the same time, they must ensure their services remain safe, high quality and financially sustainable. They’re committed to working together to build a modern, person centred system that meets the needs of local people now and in the future.
Delivering Caring for Ayrshire is led jointly by NHS Ayrshire and Arran and the 3 Ayrshire Integration Joint Boards. In recent conversations they’ve reflected on the progress made so far and will identify the priorities that will guide the next phase of Delivering Caring for Ayrshire. These discussions will continue to shape how they take this important work forward, together with the people and communities they serve.
