  • Inverclyde Royal Hospital, a general hospital in Greenock opened in 1979
  • Sunnyside Royal Hospital, psychiatric hospital in Hillside, Angus, founded in 1781
  • Forth Valley Royal Hospital, a general hospital in Larbert opened in 2011 to replace both Stirling Royal Infirmary and Falkirk Royal Infirmary. After the conclusion of the transfer of patients and services to the new hospital the old sites were redeveloped and new community hospitals were opened on both the previous sites.
  • Queen Elizabeth Royal University Hospital, opened in July 2015 this hospital was developed on the site of the old Southern General Hospital. All services from the Western and Victoria Infirmaries were transferred here prior to the closure of these sites. Some services from Gartnavel General Hospital were also transferred to the new hospital with Gartnavel remaining open. Originally designated the title of South Glasgow University Hospital it was granted Royal Status by Queen Elizabeth II and it's name changed to reflect both its Royal status and to honour its royal patron who opened the facility. The lateness of the name change has caused some confusion and at the time of writing (Dec 15) many within the catchment area of the hospital are unaware of the name change or disregard it calling it "The New Southern".
