We do not currently fully use digital opportunities to best meet the needs of our population, especially for those who must travel to access services. We do use technology, for example you can sometimes have an appointment with your consultant, nurse or other healthcare professional by using a computer or smartphone in your own home, or attending a local healthcare facility rather than a big hospital further away. We also use discrete devices that you can use at home to help you be aware of your condition, or flag to healthcare professionals connected to the device when something is not right. However, our use of digital technologies is not consistent or widespread. We need to use latest technological advances in modern facilities to create a health system without barriers. This will help you directly but also help us to attract the best workforce.
