The Oban Times &WEST HIGHLAND TIMES
This week, The Oban Times is launching a campaign to raise the profile of health care in Oban, Lorn and the islands with the aim of retaining and improving the use and understanding of services.
The region faces a number of challenges, many of which have been highlighted in this newspaper, including caring for an ageing population, tight healthcare budgets and difficulties in recruiting staff, including nurses, GPs and hospital consultants.
