Fabulous talk by @karen_titchener How to stop building hospitals and build hospitals@home instead. Cheaper and patient centred. Key set up steps; engagement, build team, tech and operations. @WHAH_cong @UKHaHSoc

Did you know we operate a virtual A&E service which provides you with urgent video and telephone access to a team of emergency care specialists? If you think you need to visit A&E, but it's not life-threatening, consider using this service. You could be seen and treated faster.

"I live over an hour from Raigmore Hospital so @NHSNearMe was brilliant for me. I was able to continue to work from home, & just take a short time out to speak with the consultant. This prevented me from taking a minimum of 3 hrs out of work" - General Surgery

This from @DrGregorSmith at @SP_HSCS "Interesting work is being done with Scottish libraries on how we begin to create networks that support people to be able to use digital technologies to engage more readily with clinical and care services @SLICCEO @SLIC1991 @mgtwhoriskey
I will say it again...we only give people real choice if we put in place a system that offers it. Consultant preference for a 3 minute appointment should not be the deciding factor. @JonCamer0n @mgtwhoriskey @NHSNearMe
