What changed

The Care Inspectorate has released its new corporate plan, effective for the next five years, following extensive sector engagement. This plan details the organization's vision for ensuring high-quality, compassionate care in Scotland and its mission to provide public assurance, support improvement, and foster collaboration within social care and social work services.

The plan is structured around three strategic outcomes and enablers, each with clear performance measures designed to reflect shared priorities and drive accountability. While this document is a strategic plan and not a rule with direct compliance obligations for external entities, it signals the Care Inspectorate's future focus and priorities for regulatory oversight within the social care sector in Scotland.

After extensive engagement across the sector last year, we have published a bold and refreshed corporate plan to guide our work over the next five years.

The new corporate plan has our vision even more firmly at its core: that everyone in Scotland experiences high-quality, compassionate care, support and learning when they need it, delivered in a way that respects their rights and choices.

To achieve this, our mission sets out how we will provide public assurance about the quality of social care and social work - supporting improvement and collaboration.

The corporate plan is built around three strategic outcomes that reflect what stakeholders expect from a modern, rights-focused regulator.

Each strategic outcome and enabler will be supported by clear performance measures. These were developed to ensure they reflect shared priorities and can drive accountability across the organisation.
