Scottish Telecare Information Framework Innovative Telecare, Powered by Data
We are excited to announce the rollout of the Scottish Telecare Information Framework (TIF), a groundbreaking initiative designed to revolutionise telecare services across Scotland. The TIF is a standardised dataset developed to enhance telecare services, ensuring they are person-centred, safe, and digitally integrated within the health and social care sector.
What is the Scottish Telecare Information Framework?
The TIF establishes a unified, data-driven foundation for telecare services, enabling real-time data sharing, faster response times, and better integration with health and social care systems. This framework supports a modern, digital telecare service that is proactive, interoperable, and consistently aligned with the needs of individuals, communities, and the wider health and social care landscape.
Benefits to the Health and Social Care Sector
By adopting the TIF, Telecare Service Providers will be equipped with high-quality data to harness the full capabilities of digital systems. This data improvement ensures more effective, timely, and personalised care, supporting proactive and preventative interventions. The TIF also strengthens collaboration between services, ensuring continuity and safety in urgent care situations. Well-structured data allows for meaningful analysis, benchmarking, and reporting, helping providers meet national standards and adapt services to the evolving needs of service users.
Embedding the TIF into the Shared ARC Platform
We are embedding the TIF into the Shared ARC Platform, enhancing its capabilities and ensuring seamless integration with other health and social care systems. This integration will support consistent identity management, efficient service delivery, and enhanced care continuity across organisational and geographical boundaries.
Call to Action

By doing so, you will contribute to a more integrated, efficient, and person-centred telecare service that meets the highest standards of care.
