We set strategic aims, hold executives to account for the delivery of those aims, determine the level of risk the board is willing to accept, influence the organisation’s culture, and engage with stakeholders on the stewardship of public money and the priorities of the board. In doing so, NHS Ayrshire & Arran provides a vast range of health services to more than a quarter of a million people.
