Mar aite-cruinneachaidh sluaigh as gach cearn a dh’Alba cha b’urrainn a bhith na b’fhearr. A thuilleadh air a sin, chan eil Sruighlea ach mar gum biodh ceum no dha air falbh bho fhaiche Allt a’ Bhonnaich, an raon ainmeil ud far an do choisinn feachd na h-Albainn “ urram is gloir ” nuair a shaor iad an duthaich bho chuing a namhaid.

  • Director of Public Health's Annual Report Looks at the Challenges Ahead
    Team Update Issue 74 November 2010 www.nhshighland.scot.nhs.uk Director of Public Health’s Annual Report looks at the challenges ahead Alcohol misuse, smoking and obesity are major public health challenges facing NHS Highland, according to the first annual report from its Director of Public Health. Dr Margaret Somerville’s report also highlights the increasing number of older people in the local population and the corresponding increase in the number of people living with long- term conditions, such as hypertension, depression, asthma, coronary heart disease, diabetes and cancer. And it looks at lessons learned from last year’s influenza pandemic and explains that a major challenge for the future will be preparing and planning for climate change. Dr Somerville, (pictured top right) who took up the post in February of this year, points out that the health service, along with the rest of the public sector, still has to deal with these issues at a time when their budget is under increasing pressure. She said: “This report reflects my own observations about the health of people in NHS Highland in my first few months in post and the major challenges that lie ahead if we are to continue improving health and closing the gap between the best and worst off in society. “With the prospect of real cuts in spending on health over the next few years, it is more important than ever that we do not lose sight of the long-term health improvement work through which we hope to contain and reduce health service use and cost.” Dr Somerville explained that the population of NHS Highland had increased by more than 5% over the last 10 years and was predicted to increase by a further 10% over the next 20 years, with the number of people aged over 75 more than doubling in the same period.

  • Strategic Plan 2019/20 – 2021/22
    PEOPLE IN ARGYLL AND BUTE WILL LIVE LONGER, HEALTHIER INDEPENDENT LIVES Strategic Plan 2019/20 – 2021/22 FOREWORD FROM OUR CHIEF OFFICER Welcome to the Argyll & Bute Health and Social Care Partnership’s second Strategic Plan. Our previous plan supported us to continue to deliver your services during a challenging period of change, whilst ensuring that we maintained the focus on supporting the people of Argyll & Bute to lead long, healthy and independent lives. Over the next three years we will build on the success of bringing a multi-disciplinary team of health and social care staff together with a continuing focus on integrated services and practices. We are working with staff to progress a shared understanding of best practices and importantly develop a new health and social care practice that will allow us to deliver services that protect and keep people safe. As a rural health and social care partnership, our geography and demographic can at times be perceived as challenging but it should also be perceived as an opportunity to develop innovative community based practices throughout health and social care. We are seeking best practices in rural medicine and social care and are seeking to innovate with the independent and third sector to strengthen and enhance the breadth of service delivery in our remote and rural areas. We are also actively working with our key partners, NHS Highland and Argyll & Bute Council, to plan a workforce that will support Argyll & Bute’s population and the diverse range of health and social care needs. We continue to support the approach of ‘right service, right place and right time’ to ensure that Argyll & Bute residents are able to access the range of health and social care services they require.

  • The Story of Nursing in British Mental Hospitals
    Downloaded by [New York University] at 12:59 29 November 2016 The Story of Nursing in British Mental Hospitals From their beginnings as the asylum attendants of the nineteenth century, mental health nurses have come a long way. This is the first comprehensive history of mental health nursing in Britain in over twenty years, and during this period the landscape has transformed as the large institutions have been replaced by services in the community. McCrae and Nolan examine how the role of mental health nursing has evolved in a social and professional context, brought to life by an abundance of anecdotal accounts. The nine chronologically ordered chapters follow the development from untrained attendants in the pauper lunatic asylums to the professionally qualified nurses of the twentieth century, and, finally, consider the rundown and closure of the mental hospitals from nurses’ perspectives. Throughout, the argument is made that while the training, organisation and environment of mental health nursing has changed, the aim has remained essentially the same: to nurture a therapeutic relationship with people in distress. McCrae and Nolan look forward as well as back, and highlight significant messages for the future of mental health care. For mental health nursing to be meaningfully directed, we must first understand the place from which this field has developed. This scholarly but accessible book is aimed at anyone with an interest in mental health or social history, and will also act as a useful resource for policy- makers, managers and mental health workers. Niall McCrae is a lecturer in mental health nursing at Florence Nightingale Faculty of Nursing & Midwifery, King’s College London.

  • Blarbuie Woodland
    Health And Natural Heritage Case Studies Blarbuie Woodland Location Lochgilphead, Argyll Summary Woodland around Argyll and Bute Hospital is now used on a daily basis by hospital staff, patients and local residents of all ages and abilities as a result of woodland restoration, path creation, signage and interpretation with both direct and indirect health benefits. Health benefits - Physical and mental health benefits for those involved in practical woodland path management work - Physical resource / refuge / place of safety and tranquillity for those visiting the hospital - Reduced suicidal and self-harm tendencies amongst mental health service users as a result of involvement in the project - Reduced cigarette smoking by those working in the woods Keys to success and learning points • Access to attractive and well managed woodland or other natural environments was traditionally an intrinsic part of mental health care and is no less relevant today. • Restoring and developing woodland and other habitats with opportunities for public access adjacent to hospitals, as well as where people live and work, can provide opportunities for local residents, staff and visitors to enjoy walking and other physical exercise. • Developing an accessible path network is fundamental to encouraging and enabling people to enjoy walking, and to stimulating informal outdoor physical activity. • Involving as wide a range of people as possible can add to the physical labour resource and get more people active, with physical and mental health benefits. • Opportunity for mental health service users to work, mix and laugh with the “interesting” characters brought in as contractors and trainers is an important key to success. More about the project Argyll and Bute Hospital is typical of many such institutions set up in the Victorian era.

  • “The Benefits to Aspects of Physical, Mental, Emotional and Social Health of Enjoyable Outdoor Activity Are Well Evidenced
    Health in Woods Seminar Report Argyll and Bute Hospital, Lochgilphead th Monday 18 November 2013 “The benefits to aspects of physical, mental, emotional and social health of enjoyable outdoor activity are well evidenced and present opportunities to reduce many long term conditions (Great Outdoors: How Our Natural Health Service Uses Green Space to Improve Wellbeing - Faculty of Public Health). From a clinical perspective there is increasing interest as to complement existing medical treatment. From a health improvement viewpoint, the achievement of positive, sustainable health behaviour change is rooted in the motivation of individuals and communities, and should take account of their wider circumstances.” Dan Jenkins, NHS Highland Health Promotion Specialist Synopsis: As part of the CWA Enterprising Woods project, CWA ran a Health in Woods seminar in partnership with CWA members, Blarbuie Woodland Enterprise and Abriachan Forest Trust and NHS Highland. The seminar included presentations from partners involved in delivering health-based activities within community woodlands plus workshops and discussions including how to set up activities, practical activity sessions and a site visit to Blarbuie Woods. The event was free to community groups and health based organisations. Seminar Objective: This seminar aimed to highlight the benefits of community woodland experiences for people with poor mental and/or physical health. This seminar was for people involved in community woodlands, working with or who wish to work with people with poor mental/physical health, health service providers and those working in education or using the outdoors. CWA aimed to bring people together from across the community woodlands and health sectors to share knowledge and experience to continue to develop and provide healthy opportunities for communities.
