The Benefits
Collaboration
We represent our Community Members on over 40 Boards and committees across Yorkshire. Bringing the Social Care Voice to the table and changing the perspective of many of these meetings. We are also able to be ahead of the changes and can ensure we communicate in advance to our community members putting them in a strong position.
Working Together
We provide an environment where working together is the norm and sharing is a way of creating solutions to the problems. We facilitate the sharing of best practice across the members and the issues that our Community Members are facing. 300 minds can find creative solutions that 1 mind perhaps can’t.
Institute of Health and Social Care Management IHSCM
As a community member you have free access through the YCA to all the events and training courses.
The Institute of Health & Social Care Management membership is designed “by our members, for our members“. As a collaborative group we know how important it is for health and social care leaders to have a space where they feel they can have a direct impact on their future.
Business Focused
It is a given that our primary task is to offer the best care possible, but social care is made up of small/medium businesses and we understand the need for these to be profitable. We provide virtual and face to face business events, including Master Classes in various subjects BOT (Business Operational Transformation) pod casts and networking events.
Leadership
The YCA is about guiding and impacting outcomes, enabling groups of people to work together to accomplish what they couldn’t do working individually.
Free memberships
Membership is FREE but we do require a commitment to a solutions mindset and a CAN-DO ATTITUDE.
