Scotland’s Health Awards acknowledge and celebrate those working across NHS Scotland and its partners to deliver high quality health and social care services to the people of Scotland. This is the first year of a new partnership between The Scotsman and the Scottish Government and will recognise those that go that extra mile to improve the health and wellbeing of others.
