All Health and Social care services in Scotland have a duty of candour. This is a legal requirement meaning that when things go wrong and mistakes happen, the people affected understand what has happened, receive an apology, and that organisations learn how to improve for the future. This policy outlines how Kirkmichael EYC meets the obligations introduced by the Health and Care (Scotland) Act 2016 and Duty of Candour Procedure (Scotland) Regulations 2018<\/p>\n

Kirkmichael EYC is an Early Years Centre in South Ayrshire for children aged 2-5.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. The death of a person.<\/li>\n

Following this, we ensure that all staff are complying with responsibilities to children and their families by following relevant Duty of Candour Guidance from the Scottish Government. If any incidents occur, these would be reported to management immediately.<\/p>\n
