About themed visits

One of the ways in which the Commission monitors individual care and treatment is through our visiting programme.  This year we are conducting a series of themed visits to psychiatric hospitals.  The aim of themed visits is to enable us to compare care and treatment for particular groups of service-user. Our aim is to help services learn from good practice and to respond to any issues that are identified.

This report provides an overview of our findings from visits to people receiving care and treatment in rehabilitation and continuing care wards in Scotland. These wards typically provide care and treatment to people with severe and enduring mental illnesses.
