Your role in the Care Inspectorate’s Digital Transformation
We are excited to announce the next phase in our Stage 2 Digital Transformation, aimed at modernising our regulatory systems to enhance scrutiny and improvement activities. This transformation will impact both care services and those receiving care across the country.
To ensure this is a user-led transformation, we need your input. We are seeking feedback from people who use our systems so that we can understand your needs, what works well, and what can be improved. Your involvement could range from participating in design discussions to testing the new system.
If you're interested, please complete our short MS form. Our partners at Capgemini will contact you when needed. Completing the form does not commit you to anything, and we will understand if you have other priorities later.
We hope you will join us in building a world class system.
