Digital Technologies for Health
Effective patient access to digital health resources is such a key issue that the NHS recently released a guide to help healthcare providers, commissioners, and designers ensure that services delivered digitally are as inclusive as possible. We strive to adhere to these recommendations and continue our efforts to provide technology enabled care systems for all. This includes the use of:
Online tools and guidance for health information
Mobile apps for general and specific health conditions
Digital and assistive technologies for health (improving your health online / health apps / home automation / smart homes)
