On the 1st July 2022, NHS England established 42 statutory Integrated Care Boards (ICB) in line with its duty as arises from the Health and Care Act 2022. This is part of the Act’s provision for creating Integrated Care Systems (ICS). Social Care is one of the partners of the ICS but the sector has never had any formal representation ... until now.
The launch of SCNAC across England has been a very exciting moment for the profession and is a significant milestone, not only for the nursing profession in general but especially for social care nurses and others working in Social Care.
Paula du Rand, the SCNAC Chair for Birmingham and Solihull is inviting "everyone involved in Social Care, no matter what capacity, to step forward and join us in making an impact to bring about the changes this sector so desperately needs. We have finally been given the opportunity to work in partnership and need to grab hold of it".
