An Independent Sector Healthcare Provider is a private sector healthcare company that is contracted by the NHS in the provision of healthcare or in the support of the provision of healthcare.
Dumfries and Galloway have a range of private sector health companies operating in the region, delivering services in care homes, care at home and specialist units.
Staffing levels across Health and Social Care are being impacted, as staff are still having to isolate due to Covid and new posts are being created to deal with an increase in care packages. Now more than ever, we are asking our community to find out more about careers in care, particularly in our private sector companies.
