NHS Shetland is responsible for health care for a population of around 23,000. Our strategic intent is to provide easy access to high quality, sustainable and person-centred care as close to home as possible and make a meaningful difference to the building blocks of good health in our communities. Our three key objectives are:

  • We provide excellent services for people
  • We support the building blocks of healthy communities
  • We create the conditions for a sustainable organisation

Chief Executive Brian Chittick has clearly set out his priorities in post which you can read here.

Our Vision is that everyone in Shetland can live well for longer, and easily access the support they need from us.
