Chair of the latest Scotland Policy Conferences seminar – next steps for integration in health and social care – Rhoda Grant, Labour MSP and member of the carers’ cross-party group, joined healthandcare.scot to discuss the nature of caring in Scotland.

As Scotland’s population ages and the need for paid and unpaid carers increases, Ms Grant reflects on the importance of ensuring the right support systems are in place so that carers are kept involved at every stage, particularly if an individual ends up in hospital.
