The Acute Services Division is split into nine Directorates across 18 sites with a workforce of 27,500 and an annual budget of £1.2 billion. The geographical area covered is diverse; it covers the major city of Glasgow, large and small towns, villages and some rural areas. We have significant challenges ahead as we deliver the objectives set out in Better Health Better Care and we seek to ensure that we have the right people for the right posts delivering a comprehensive health service to the population of Greater Glasgow and Clyde.</p><p>The Acute service in North Glasgow presently employs more than 14,300 staff serving a core catchment population of 560,000. Our patients not only come from Glasgow but are also drawn from within the wider Health Board area, the West of Scotland region and in the case of National Services from across Scotland. </p><p>Today Glasgow is a compact, vibrant and modern city. In fact Glasgow’s scale comes as a surprise to some people. It has the largest suburban rail network outside London and is second only to the UK Capital as a retail centre. There are top- ranking schools, excellent leisure facilities, beautiful golf courses and elegant accommodation across all price ranges. The night life and restaurants are renowned and its opera, theatres, art galleries and museums offer plenty of cultural stimulation.</p><p>From Glasgow, the West of Scotland’s jewels are within easy reach. Loch Lomond is just 45 minutes drive, a little further to the Argyll peninsula – or over the sea to Arran, Skye, Iona and Mull.</p><p>There are top-ranking schools, excellent leisure facilities, beautiful golf courses and elegant accommodation across all price ranges. The Glasgow Dental Hospital and School</p><p>Glasgow Dental Hospital and School is situated in the centre of Glasgow.
