BBC

The Isle of Man is set to strengthen its monitoring and inspection of health and social care services with the introduction of the Regulation of Health and Social Care Bill. This new legislation aims to replace the limited regulatory functions of the 2013 law, enhancing the health department's oversight of healthcare services and social care activities. By expanding its regulatory powers, the island seeks to improve the overall quality of care, ensuring a safer and more effective healthcare system for its residents. Key aspects of the bill include enhanced inspection powers and improved regulatory frameworks, which will help to identify and address any shortcomings in health and social care services, ultimately promoting better patient outcomes and higher standards of care.
