Prime Numbers and the Riemann Hypothesis
An innovative approach to risk and quality assessment in the regulation of care services in Scotland
The Scottish Government’s social care regulator, the Care Commission, seeks continual improvement in the quality of social care services. Its approach has been to establish a modern risk-based regulatory regime using separate measures of risk and quality. We evaluate this twin approach, firstly, in relation to the literature on predictors of poor service quality in care delivery; and, secondly, by interviewing a sample of Care Commission inspecto…
Modern Concepts of Quality and Risk
This article is about the complex interplay between quality and risk in the context of care for older people in Scotland. We review relevant theoretical literature underpinning the concept of ‘quality’ and its relationship with ‘risk’ to discover a wide range of regulatory challenges related to issues such as an increasing number of older people; intense press scrutiny; private care home provision; and, healthcare professionals increasingly shift…
Low-cost Insurance Schemes in Scottish Social Housing
The UK has had a long history of market provision of household insurance. Recent years, however, have seen a decline in the traditional insurance market distribution channels aimed at low-income and/or rented-sector households. The products, pricing and method of payment currently offered by insurers have exacerbated the exclusion of many in social housing from this important financial services product. Research suggests that only 50 per cent of …
Private sector participation in health and social care services in Scotland
The UK Government faces increased pressure to provide health and social care services more cheaply yet at a high level of quality. Increased private sector involvement in the funding and delivery of services is seen as a major part of the solution. When assessing the relative merits of approaches to private versus public sector provision, risk may be an important differentiator. This article explores some key points of comparison on risk issues a…
Audit Committees in Scottish Local Authorities 1998—2005
During the last 15 years corporate governance has become increasingly prominent in the public sector. The Audit Commission's 1993 report on probity in local government recommended the establishment of audit committees. However, progress on this was slow, as demonstrated by a survey of Scottish local authorities by the authors in 1998. Recent major changes in government in Scotland at both a local and national level have prompted councils to impro…

Popular Medical Beliefs and Attitude Toward Mental Illness in Peru
In a survey of attitudes of mental hospital personnel in Lima, Peru by Stein and Oetting, professional psychiatric personnel tended to have humanistic attitudes, similar to those of their North American and British counterparts. The hospital attendants or aides seemed to derive their attitude structure more directly from their cultural milieu, expressing custodial attitudes that tended to be congruent with Peruvian value systems. The research was…
