Craigellachie Children's Home

1. To support young peoples safety and wellbeing, the service should ensure that all staff are clear and confident in following their organisation's child protection policy. This should include but is not limited to, clarifying roles and responsibilities for escalation of concerns and notifying the Care Inspectorate when protection concerns arise. This is to ensure that care and support is consistent with the Health and Social Care Standards (HSCS) which state that: ' I have confidence in people because they are trained, competent and skilled, are able to reflect on their practice and follow their professional and organisational codes'. (HSCS 3.14)

2. To promote positive outcomes for young people, the leaders in Craigellachie should ensure the vision for the service is effectively underpinned by the evaluation of young people's experiences. This should include but is not limited to, ensuring the service development plan has clearly identified responsible people and timescales for each action, and to promote accountable decision making, any discussion or review of young people's care is clearly documented. This is to ensure that care and support is consistent with the Health and Social Care Standards (HSCS) which state that: 'I use a service and organisation that are well led and managed'. (HSCS 4.23)
