Turning vision into action
This section brings together real-world examples of how change is being delivered across Scotland. Each case study illustrates how the Scottish Approach to Change has been applied.
The case studies featured in this section are shared for learning and reflection purposes. Healthcare Improvement Scotland was not directly involved in the delivery of some of these projects. The content has been provided by the respective teams and organisations, and reflects their experiences, approaches, and outcomes.
