Do you know your rights when it comes to care?

Many people don’t and that can make it hard to know what to expect or what to do if something goes wrong.

The new National Care Service Charter of Rights is here to help. It explains, in simple terms:
1) What your rights are
2) What good care should look like
3) What to do if your rights aren’t being met

Find out more about your rights;
National Care Service Charter of Rights - https://www.gov.scot/publications/national-care-service-charter-of-rights/

You can find the Charter in alternative formats including a summary version, easy read, large print, BSL and various translations.
