Clinical Strategy

A paramedic next to his car

In January 2010 the Scottish Ambulance Service published “Working Together for Better Patient Care” our five year Strategic Framework, setting out our strategy to deliver the best care for people in Scotland, when they need us, where they need us and with three main goals to:

  • improve patient access and referral to the most appropriate care  
  • deliver the best services for patients  
  • engage with all our partners and communities to deliver improved healthcare.  

Our 'Clinical Strategy' sets out the clinical framework within which we will develop and deliver clinical excellence across all
of our services. The strategy also aims to define the key purpose, vision and ambition of Scottish Ambulance Service to
be the provider of choice in the provision of emergency and urgent care services within the pre-hospital environment.
