We are, of course, a small organisation, with circa 700 staff looking after the health needs of some 23,000 people spread across 15 islands. However, what we lack in size, we more than make up for by way of the tight-knit, highly professional ethos that characterises every aspect of our operations.  To find out more about living in Shetland go to www.shetland.org
