For NHS organisations

All NHS organisations and providers in Scotland are required to follow the National Whistleblowing Principles and Standards. 

The Principles and Standards explain what is expected of NHS organisations and contractors about their handling of whistleblowing concerns.

The sector information includes specific guidance for primary care, health and social care partnerships, students and volunteers.

Our training, guidance and resources offer supporting information on handling concerns.
