RCN Scotland’s principles for a new approach to improving health and wellbeing in Scotland

There is no perfect way to measure the success of services in improving health and wellbeing. On that basis this paper puts forward a set of principles, which the RCN has developed through engagement with partners across Scotland, to shape the detail of a future approach. Taken as a whole, the RCN believes these principles will help Scotland build the new system to measure success in health and wellbeing that it so urgently needs.
