Posted on June 22, 2018

Falkirk Health and Social Care Partnership (HSCP) are reviewing strategic commissioning arrangements for all non-statutory mental health services, and invite providers of mental health services and their partners to attend an event on Tuesday 4^th September.

They aim to develop a strategic commissioning plan which is evidence-based, coherent and sustainable to deliver services which meet the needs of the people of Falkirk.

An event programme, timings and location will be confirmed shortly. The aim of the event is to ensure that the expertise from within services forms a core part of the commissioning strategy, as feedback and learning from services is essential.

An initial plan on what services are needed within the Falkirk area will be developed at the event.

Places are limited to 2 per organisation or provider, and booking is essential, to ensure all interested parties can be accommodated.

To book your place, or for further information, please contact Falkirk HSCP by email: integration@falkirk.gov.uk
