A report of the pilot multi-agency inspection of services for people with learning disabilities in Ayrshire that took place between February and June 2006 is presented. A multi-agency inspection model for services for people with learning disabilities was developed. A consultation event about the model was held and people’s comments were taken into account. A number of people with learning disabilities and family carers attended the event. The model was specifically designed for multi-agency inspections of learning disability services and is congruent with the SWIA performance inspection model and HMIe’s performance inspection model. The report covers enabling and sustaining independence, promoting inclusion, meeting health needs, safety and protection, record keeping and communication, meeting staff needs, developing partnership working, leadership and direction, financial resource and information management, and capacity for improvement. Recommendations are presented.
