Health is a core devolved issue, and thus always features prominently at FMQs.
So today’s damning report from the Royal College of Nursing about care across the UK – with patients dying in corridors and pregnant women miscarrying in side rooms – looks likely to come up.
It can be difficult to craft party-political arguments around an issue like this, given Labour is in power at Westminster and the Conservatives were up until very recently – everyone is implicated to some extent in the current state of services.
But given the real-world impact and responsibility that lies with ministers, it is something which has to be discussed.
Elsewhere, it’s also been a big week for disputes about the welfare system. There was a Holyrood statement on winter fuel payments, and John Swinney made a speech about child poverty.
The Scottish and UK administrations continue to circle each other over the former’s policy of offsetting the two-child cap on UK-widebenefit payments.
There will likely be some local interest too in the report about the dualling of the A9, which would apparently somehow take longer if itwas accelerated.

This week, we can expect both the Tories and Labour to highlight claims by nurses that patients are dying in hospital corridors and pregnant women are miscarrying in side rooms as overwhelmed hospitals struggle to cope.
The Royal College of Nursing (RCN) said evidence provided by more than 5,000 of its members across the UK this winter also showed cupboards, car parks, bathrooms and nursing stations were being turned into makeshift areas for patients.
So far this week, the first minister has been focusing on the Scottish government's ambitions to eradicate child poverty.
John Swinney dismissed a suggestion from the UK government that SNP plans to offset the two-child benefit cap are being held up by Holyrood ministers.
The Scottish government wants to issue payments to families by 2026 - but says it needs UK benefits data to make it happen.
Elsewhere, plans to accelerate the dualling of the A9 have been rejected by transport bosses over concerns it would not save any time on the project.
It was also confirmed that MSPs are to get a pay rise of more than £2,000 this year, bringing the basic salary for Holyrood parliamentarians to £74,506.
And, of course, the Glen Sannox ferry - which has beenat the centre of Scotland's long-running ferries saga - started carrying passengers between the Scottish mainland and the island of Arran.
