We need our own local “magic cupboard” of care staff in North Berwick Coastal Area - but where are they to be found? We have the greatest unmet need according to ELH&SCP data.

This is an excellent post that summarises the “staff shortage” problems well. Esp for bank staff call for winter pressures or waiting list initiatives. Good staff, well trained on paper but not for the systems and procedures they are asked to cover in specialist areas. No magic cupboard.

We would encourage residents of North Berwick Coastal Area to complete this survey esp those who live alone, are more elderly, who do not drive or are isolated in rural / remote NBCA.
We need to encourage more services to be delivered locally through GP surgeries, CTAC or Day centres eg falls assessment and training or outreach clinics in GP surgeries or video appointments.
Despite the improved bus service timetable it will still take >30 min to get to ELCH and 1.5-2 hours to get to appointment at RIE and WGH.
Your time to have your say!
