This evaluation is concerned with the Scottish Recovery Indicator (SRI). The SRI enables the assessment of whether and how organisations, and those who work in them, are ensuring that individuals who use their services and their carers’ needs are met in terms of their rights to equality, social inclusion and support to recover. The SRI data is collected from a range of sources, including: assessments and care plans, service information, policies and procedures and interviews with service providers and service users. The evaluation objectives are to assess the relevance and appropriateness of the tool to a variety of settings, identify what preparation organisations and individuals need before using the tool and how best the tool should be used, identify whether the tool may be able to measure changes in services and the potential for the use of SRI as a means of promoting change, and to assess whether service users and carers feel added benefit from being involved in the piloting of SRI. The evaluation explored and reviewed the developmental process of the SRI from the perspectives of all of the groups of individuals involved and included local pilot site group discussions, documentary analysis of a completed SRIs and interviews with SRI administrators, service-user and service-provider group participants, a review of any action planning documentation and focus groups with those involved in action planning/implementing change.
