Practitioner Services - Enabling Primary Care

Equality & Diversity

 

Practitioner Services, as with all National Services Scotland (NSS) Divisions, is committed to proactively promoting Equality & Diversity for the benefit of staff and those who use our services.

The NSS Equality & Diversity Policy clearly outlines the responsibilities of staff and Divisions to promote an environment of acceptance and accessibility.    There are currently 6 strands being actively promoted by NSS and cover:

    • Age
    • Disability
    • Faith/Religion
    • Gender
    • Race
    • Sexual Orientation

    Within Practitioner Services we are actively promoting Equality & Diversity through a range of initiatives, such as: training sessions, workshops, information leaflets and have also recently completed a staff survey so that a training plan for the coming year can be developed to ensure our services meet user needs.

More information on NSS Policies can be be found at the NSS web site.
