Capture, communicate, catalyse: Developing SCIE’s good practice framework
Capturing the evidence
SCIE will:
- Establish priority research areas, including the high-profile and ‘difficult’ issues
- Identify new evidence in emerging areas of practice, including the personalisation agenda
- Work with care providers, with people who use services, children, young people, their families and carers to promote consistent, accessible and relevant approaches to identifying good practice.
Communicating the knowledge
SCIE will:
- Create regional dissemination networks
- Support communities of practice in specific interest areas and develop implementation tools appropriate to particular care contexts
- Be the knowledge hub for the sector, using information and communication technologies both to disseminate to and to gather knowledge from the disparate and diverse care workforce
Catalysing change
SCIE will:
- Build strong relationships with the new regional delivery structures, including Deputy Directors of Social Care and Joint Improvement Partnerships
- Develop strong relationships with independent adult care providers to deliver a tailored set of products and services
- Work with the new Centre for Excellence and Outcomes to build regional and local capacity to improve outcomes for children and families
- Work collaboratively with employer and regional partnerships building on work already undertaken on social care governance (Northern Ireland) and working with the Social Services Improvement Agency (Wales).
