Argyll’s top health and social care official has resigned.
A spokesman for Argyll and Bute Health and Social Care Partnership (HSCP) said: ‘We can confirm Christina West has resigned from her post of chief Officer of the HSCP. She will be with us for another three months, during which time we will recruit for her replacement.’
The HSCP manages health and social care services in Argyll and Bute. In March, the chairman of its governing body, the Integrated Joint Board, Robin Creelman, apologised anxiety caused to staff and patients following an 11th-hour decision to reject a secret list of cuts, following public outrage when it was leaked.
