We pray for all who are engaged in the Health Service locally, whether as doctors, nurses, health visitors, midwives, physiotherapists or whatever
We pray for the Health Board who plan the delivery of Health Services, and the decisions they take
We pray for all the staff and patients in the hospitals which serve Dumbarton: Vale of Leven, Royal Alexandra, Golden Jubilee and the Glasgow hospitals
We pray for those who need the help of healthcare professionals, particularly if they have long-term needs
