Collaboration work with partners

In addition to our previously noted scrutiny and improvement work, the Care Inspectorate has a long-standing commitment as guest inspectors in inspections of prisons and other institutions led by His Majesty’s Inspectorate of Prisons in Scotland (HMIPS).

Get involved

We are committed to listening to and hearing from people with living experience during all of our activities.

We are also committed to embedding an ethical, person-centred approach that promotes best practice for meaningfully involving people with living experience of the justice system.
