NSS operates across the whole of Scotland, providing a wide range of national services and managing one-third of the NHSScotland budget.

This included sourcing and distributing over 1 billion items of personal protective equipment (PPE) across Health and Social Care in Scotland.

In the realm of digital technology, NSS harnessed clinical innovation to support rapid and meaningful transformation in the healthcare landscape.

NSS also played a crucial role in the establishment and operation of the NHS Louisa Jordan - a temporary hospital set up in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The latest NSS Strategic Framework for 2024-2026 sets out the organisation’s purpose, vision, priorities and objectives, as well as the NHSScotland values.

Its wide-ranging national infrastructure, services, and solutions will continue to play an important role in the recovery and renewal of health and care.
