SUMMARY:VHS at the Gathering 2020: Shaping Primary Care for the next generation in rural Scotland
DESCRIPTION:The Scottish Government’s vision for the future of primary care is for multi-disciplinary teams\, made up of a variety of health professionals\, working together to support people in their community and to give GPs more time to spend with patients in specific need of their expertise. But what does this mean in a rural context\, and what role does the rural third and community sector have to play in helping transform primary care? Rural Scotland has a growing elderly population\, increasing demand for treatment and care\, a dispersed population and challenges associated with the workforce supply for health and social care – all combining to have an impact on primary care services. \n\nHow to put general practice and primary care at the heart of the healthcare system in rural Scotland\nHow to ensure people needing care are more informed and empowered\, have access to the right person at the right time\, and can remain living at home where possible.\n\nThis workshop will be of particular interest to voluntary and community health organisations and third sector interfaces. It is a collaboration between Voluntary Health Scotland and the Scottish Rural Health Partnership. \nOur Event Speakers: \n\nAilsa Villegas\, Senior Health Development Officer- Green Health\, NHS Highland\nDr Sarah Ann Munoz\, Reader in Rural Health and Wellbeing – Division of Rural Health and Wellbeing\, University of the Highlands and Islands\nMartine Scott\, Programme Manager – Scottish Rural Medicine Collaborative (recruitment and retention of rural healthcare workers)\nDan Shaw\, Chief Executive at Aberdeenshire Voluntary Action\nAllyson McCollam\, Chair\, Voluntary Health Scotland\n\nBook your place at the event and the Gathering here. \n

SUMMARY:VHS at The Gathering 2020: Demonstrating Third Sector Impact on Inequalities
DESCRIPTION:This interactive workshop will present a model to measure the third sector’s contribution to addressing inequalities\, in particular health inequalities.  The model (co-produced by national and local voluntary and community health organisations and commissioners) aims to support third sector organisations to explain\, measure and prove their contribution to tackling inequalities. The longer term aim is to support local authorities\, NHS boards and Public Health Scotland to have a clearer\, evidence based understanding of the third sector’s contribution to tackling inequalities\, through the creation and use of a meaningful measurement tool. \nThe workshop is relevant to: \n\nanyone seeking to understand the value of the sectors interventions which aren’t necessarily “health focused” but help to contribute to tackling health inequalities\nthird sector organisations looking for support to explain to funders and partners more concretely how their work impacts on inequalities\nfunders and commissioners wanting to understand how best to understand and measure the third sector’s contribution to tackling inequalities.\n\nThis workshop is a collaboration between three members of the Inequalities Learning Collaborative: VHS\, Evaluation Support Scotland (ESS) and CHEX (Community Health Exchange)\, with additional support from NHS Health Scotland. \nTea\, coffee and biscuits will be available. \nSpeakers include: \n\nClaire Stevens\, Chief Executive\, Voluntary Health Scotland \nNicola Swan\, Evaluation Support Manager\, Evaluation Support Scotland \nSusan Paxton\, Head of Programmes: Community-led Health and Networking CHEX\nRebecca Haack\, Healthy n Happy Community Development Trust \n\nBook your place here at the gathering website. \nPlease contact Lauren Blair with any queries about this event.
