The Scottish Government, with the support of NHS National Service Scotland (NSS) has established Social Care Hubs within each Health & Social Care Partnership (HSCP) across Scotland, for the allocation of PPE stock to Social Care Providers.  This covers care homes; care at home providers; unpaid carers; personal assistants; sheltered housing services; supported housing; housing support; children’s homes and hospices, and all HSCP Social Work Services.

We have now set up a distribution hub from which the following can access stock of PPE:

• Social Work Services Staff - this process is only for social work staff. Any requests received via this process which are not from social work staff will not be fulfilled.
• Providers, Carers and Personal Assistants 
• People who use a Direct Payment to purchase social care support (Emergency PPE)
