Abstract

This dataset of the name, address, location and Unique Property Reference Number of every NHS hospital in Scotland has initially been supplied by NHS24. It takes data from their Scotland's Service Directory (https://www.nhsinform.scot/scotlands-service-directory) and matches it to current address records from the One Scotland Gazetteer. Once this data has been validated by local government custodians, the data will be actively maintained and extracted directly from the One Scotland Gazetteer.
