Pat Kilpatrick, chair of the NHS Fife board, said: “Our annual review gives people in Fife an opportunity to really examine our performance in detail and hold the NHS Fife board to account for the significant public investment made in its services.

“The services we provide are relied upon by people across Fife and we want our population to play an active part in helping us to scrutinise what has worked well, along with the areas where we need to do better.

“Whether people are able join us in person or even submit a question in advance, we want to hear from as many people as possible about their experience of accessing our services.

“In the event that we are not able to answer all the questions on the day, we will provide responses to all questions on NHS Fife website in the weeks after the review.

“So please join us in whatever way you can and support us in our efforts to provide the highest possible standard of healthcare services for people in Fife.”
