Scottish? Can you spare 20 mins for Social Care?

If you are based in Scotland and have RA, can you spare 20 minutes to take part in an important survey for the National Rheumatoid Arthritis Society? nras.org.uk/scottish-survey

NRAS is conducting a survey to investigate the care and support which people in Scotland living with RA are experiencing. We are trying to find out what types of care and support are needed for people with RA and whether these needs are being met properly by health and social care providers.

The findings of this survey will inform a report, to be produced in collaboration with the University of Aberdeen, published ahead of the Scottish Parliamentary elections in May 2016.

This is a key piece of work for us in Scotland next year which will help us to ensure parliamentarians and policy makers are aware of the health and social care needs of people living with RA in Scotland, and I would be so very grateful if you could take the time to complete this survey and to encourage others with RA to do so.

You can find the survey here: nras.org.uk/scottish-survey

This project follows on from our report published earlier this year on the social care needs of people with RA in England. nras.org.uk/news/nras-repor...

Would have done this but I have ankylosing spondylitis and it wouldn't let me continue.
