Welcome to the Leading Excellence in Care (LEiC) Education and Development Framework
The aim of the LEiC Education and Development Framework is to support the implementation of Excellence in Care into practice by providing guidance for the education and development of nursing, midwifery and allied health professions (NMAHP) leaders.
Excellence in Care
Excellence in Care (EiC) is a national approach that aims to provide assurance of a consistent standard of high-quality standard of care for people, no matter where they receive treatment in Scotland.
EiC recognises the unique contribution that nurses, midwives and allied health professionals (NMAHPs) can make to establishing the culture and conditions to provide excellence in care every time people receive care.
The Excellence in Care Framework is based on the premise that to achieve 'excellence in care' all the elements with the framework are inter-dependent, evidence-based and of equal importance.
It is built on four essential requirements identfied by the families who contributed to the Vale of Leven Inquiry:
- person-centredness
- compassion
- fundmentals of care and,
- communication, both verbal and written, with patients, their families and between staff
