Date of Meeting:   25 August 2022 
Title of Report:     Argyll & Bute HSCP- Performance Report May 2022
Presented by:       Stephen Whiston Head of Strategic Planning, Performance and
Technology 
The Community Services Committee is asked to:
 Consider the IJB HSCP performance report presented at the IJB in May 2022 
1. Introduction 
Reporting against the HSCP Health & Wellbeing Outcome Indicators continues to be
affected by the recent re-escalation of Covid19 pandemic requiring health and care
services remain on an “emergency” footing. 
The remobilisation of services across both health and social care is a Scottish
Government priority and frontline staff and managers are working hard to achieve this
across the Health & Social Care Partnership. Our priority is on ensuring that key
services and access as far as possible for people is managed and delivered locally and
safely within the Covid19 pandemic operating context alongside the ongoing
vaccination of staff and public and the delivery of test and protect.
The Covid19 pandemic second wave from March 2022 has seen a tightening of “lock-
down” measures due to a new and more infectious mutation of the virus. This has once
again compromised the full resumption of service. The Cabinet Secretary for Health in
December 2021 directed Chief Executives in both Local Authorities and Health Boards
that emergency and critical service provision should be prioritised until March 2022.
The attached report was presented to the IJB in May 2022
