Summary

Healthcare Improvement Scotland asked us to carry out a piece of focused engagement to help inform its anti-racism plan.

In March 2024, the Scottish Government asked all NHS Scotland organisations to develop their own anti-racism plan with input from stakeholders, including forums representing minority ethnic colleagues and minority ethnic communities themselves.  Healthcare Improvement Scotland developed its plan alongside its staff Race and Ethnicity Network. We were asked to carry out some focused engagement to understand the experience of communities and ensure our plan makes a meaningful contribution towards addressing healthcare inequalities.

Based on our findings we made 9 recommendations to Healthcare Improvement Scotland.
