Almost there...

Health Improvement Scotland (HIS) has inspected my services this week. The visit by the inspector was constructive positive, feedback has been very encouraging.

Not airborne yet but the doors are closed and we're taxiing towards the runway!!

Just one minor tweak to a policy has been requested, which I'm actioning today - then it's just a case of waiting for final approval and my certificate!

NOW is the perfect time to contact me for a spot in my inaugural clinic, which will be held on a Saturday in Melrose.

OPENING DAY DISCOUNTS if you pre-book:

🎉 20% off all consultations and mole checks
🎉10% off all cryotherapy

Best of all, if you pre-book now you get this discount for your first visit, even if you can't make it to opening day 🙂

A lovely evening spent connecting with local independent health and wellbeing professionals at the recent Borders Independent Health Professionals Network.

The evening focused on relaxed discussion, networking, collaboration, and sharing ideas on how we can continue building stronger connections across the Scottish Borders.

Some key themes discussed included:
✨ Developing stronger referral pathways
✨ Increasing awareness of local independent services
✨ Peer support and shared learning opportunities
✨ Guest speaker sessions and business development topics
✨ Creating a digital business directory for local services
✨ Launching our new page to improve communication and signposting opportunities

We also discussed future guest speaker sessions, with a potential virtual session in August (TBC) focusing on consent, policies, and exit strategies.

We would love to hear from members and the wider community:

❓ What would you like to gain from the network?
❓ Are there any guest speaker topics you would love us to explore?
