  1. Providing the evidence…..linking social care, housing support and health dataGillian Barclay &Ellen LynchScottish Government

  2. Summary • Areas of Research • Project Governance • Privacy Impact Assessment • Overview of the Data Linking Process

  3. Areas of Research • Improve our understanding of whether those who have had multiple unplanned admissions to hospital have a social care package in place • Improving the information on people with dementia • Tracking people with dementia over time to provide evidence of how their support packages change and if this impacts on emergency admissions. • Improving the information on people who have a mental health problem and on those who have died by probable suicide to see if and what support packages were in place.

Project governance (2) • Permission from the data controllers including data sharing agreements. • Support from the Information Commissioner’s Office. • Ethical approval (if deemed ‘research’ as opposed to ‘audit’ or ‘service evaluation’). • Approval from the CHI Advisory Group. • Approval from the Privacy Advisory Committee.
