Renf BSL Plan 3.4 Health and Wellbeing

3.4. Health and Wellbeing

BSL users will have access to the
information and services they need

to live active, healthy lives, and to make
informed choices at every stage of

their lives (BSL National Plan).

The Renfrewshire Health and Social
Care Partnership work to deliver

adult social care services and all
community health services for adults

and children in Renfrewshire.

The partnership brings together staff
and services from Renfrewshire Council

and NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde.
The sensory impairment team is part

of the Health and
Social Care Partnership.

These actions are joint with
NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde

and Renfrewshire Health
and Social Care Partnership.

By 2029, we will:

a) Signpost BSL users to health and
social care information available in BSL

(to be produced by NHS Health Scotland
and NHS24), and b) develop complementary

information in BSL about
local provision, as appropriate.

Ensure information and services about
mental health services are accessible

to all individuals.

Through the Integration Joint Board,
ensure that psychological therapies

can be offered on a fair and
equal basis to BSL users.

Take steps to improve access to information
about sport, and to local sports facilities

and sporting opportunities.

Ensure that any local work to tackle
social isolation explicitly considers

the needs of BSL users.
