As you’ll see we have put together some information on this site both about NHS Tayside and where we are located in Scotland. I hope that you find this useful and that you translate your interest in this post into a formal application. NHS Tayside has a strong track record in delivering high-quality, safe and effective care for all our patients.

Transforming Tayside aims to deliver Better Health, Better Care, Better Workplace and Better Value for the population of Tayside. The programme is clinically-led and is being delivered in partnership with our staff and trades unions and our local health and social care partnerships. It is structured to respond to issues and make changes to services in the short to medium-term, as well as presenting an ambitious vision of transformation for Tayside in the longer term. It will provide clear and credible choices for transforming the future of local healthcare. A new, innovative leadership model for clinical directorates is now in place to drive the changes necessary in health and social care across the whole system.

BFNK June 2020 online Magazine Dear Friends Who would have thought that June would arrive and we would still be living under lockdown? For those of you who are still behind closed doors, we can only sympathise and offer occasional phone calls. The rest of us may have enjoyed a little more company. Our son decided to use his new freedom to visit the old folk (us) and arrived with his two dogs. We managed a walk and a picnic lunch in the garden, suitably distanced but have you ever tried to be socially distant from two excited Border terriers? Not possible! I hope some of you are able to find our Sunday worship on the website, and I know several of you are enjoying different Sunday offerings on TV. Wherever and however you worship, we are still part of the one Body of Christ. Rules are changing every week and I hope it will not be long until we can meet as a congregation, but until then let’s keep in touch and keep praying for one another. My thanks also to the Work Party and others who are looking after our buildings and grounds meantime. I’ve put together a few articles from our members which I hope you enjoy. Do let us know of any needs you hear about or special occasions which we ought to mark. Your minister, Catherine Please remember in your prayers all those who are mourning a loss, especially Miss Kate Reid our Session Clerk, whose brother Iain died on 27th May and the family and friends of Mrs Gladys Langlands, Balgillo Road who died on 24th May age 97 Congratulations to members who recently celebrated key birthdays Mrs Isa Caird April Mrs Gladys Tennant May From Junior Church The leaders have been keeping in touch with the youngsters and their families each week by sending out a pack with activities for them to do.
