NHS National Services Scotland (NSS) is a public body and national health board of NHS Scotland.

Accountable to the Scottish Government, NSS works at the heart of Scotland’s health service, providing national strategic support services and expert advice to NHS Scotland.

Its integral role to NHS Scotland means the organisation works closely with other organisations across Scotland’s health and care landscape - especially NHS Boards - in the delivery of its services.  

NSS employs around 3,400 highly specialised staff based in various locations across Scotland.
