NHS Fife is an NHS board which provides healthcare services in Fife, Scotland. It is one of the fourteen regions of NHS Scotland.
Hospitals
The board runs two main hospitals:[3]
- Victoria Hospital in Kirkcaldy
- Queen Margaret Hospital in Dunfermline
It also runs a number of community and day hospitals, including:
- Adamson Hospital in Cupar
- Cameron Hospital in Windygates
- Glenrothes Hospital
- Lynebank Hospital in Dunfermline
- Randolph Wemyss Memorial Hospital in Buckhaven
- St Andrews Community Hospital
- Stratheden Hospital in Cupar
- Whyteman's Brae Hospital in Kirkcaldy
Finances
The board faces an overspend of up to £3.5 million for 2014/5. Financial pressures included the cost of medical locums and bank nurses to fill long-term vacancies in acute services and the impact of new drugs to treat Hepatitis C and Anti-TNF drugs for rheumatology.[4]
In 2019, it was reported that the NHS Fife estate needed £89 million of maintenance to bring the buildings up to acceptable standards, and that this cost had risen by £11.5 million in the last year, primarily due to further deterioration of the tower block at Victoria Hospital.[5]
