About this group
In response to Covid-19, the health system plans to rapidly expand the use of video consultations.
The aim of this group is to share practical learning, tips and challenges when introducing this complex service change, and to learn from existing evidence.
We want this space to be helpful in progressing your work, rather than competing with it.
This group is convened by Jo Scott
This is very useful thanks!
