Non-Executive Board members work with closely with NHS Forth Valley’s Senior Leadership Team and staff across the organisation and play a key role in setting the Board’s strategic direction, monitoring and reviewing performance, managing and overseeing risk, creating the right culture and, as ambassadors of the Board, engaging widely with staff, partner organisations and other key stakeholders.  Non-Executive Board members must therefore be able to think strategically and creatively, have independent views, embody NHS Scotland’s values and have the ability to challenge in a constructive manner.
