The question
To ask the Scottish Government what its position is on the proposal to build a wing on the NHS Centre for Integrative Care in Glasgow to accommodate the new Scottish residential chronic pain facility.
The answer
The Scottish Government continues to work with NHS National Services Scotland’s National Services Division and NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde on the design of the permanent facility of the Scottish National Chronic Pain Management Programme (SNCPMP).
It should be made clear that the permanent build for the SNCPMP may be located adjacent to the Centre for Integrative Care (CIC) building on the Gartnavel campus, but should not be considered a 'wing' of the existing centre. The CIC and the SNCPMP deliver different models of care, although we are ensuring that the on-going design work for the latter explores options for sharing facilities.
