These have all been compiled and effort estimated. Once the redesign work is complete, these will be prioritised in line with the remaining budget. We expect this to take place around late June.
A big thank you to all of you who have completed our Impact and Value questionnaire. The data from this will be really helpful in informing the first draft of the business case for long term provision of the RDS. This will be reviewed by the National Advisory Board for RDS later this month.

Many thanks to all of you who have met with me recently to complete or clarify your responses to the quality audit survey at the end of last year. Work to complete the quality audit for all toolkits published on RDS prior to November last year will continue for the next few months.
The RDS team is now working with Moray HSCP to evaluate impact of the new RDS toolkit “Preventing progress of diabetes” (https://preventdiabetes.scot.nhs.uk ) to support people at high risk of diabetes type 2 and those who are candidates for remission. We are looking at the impact of use of the app with SMS prompts on people’s readiness for lifestyle change over an 8 week period. This includes comparing impact in people who have a call with a dietitian in addition to using the app to people who only use the app.
If you have any questions about the content of this newsletter, please contact us on his.decisionsupport@nhs.scot.
With kind regards
