As technology is changing rapidly, we want you to feel confident in using these new tools to manage you health online. Digital literacy involves how you find, assess, and communicate information across different digital channels. We aim to gather this information to provide assistance to those who may require support in navigating platforms, your input will help us tailor our support to better serve you. To achieve this, we want to gain insight into your comfort level with using digital tools to support your healthcare needs. 

We can help you use apps and websites to manage your health online, like checking your medical record, booking appointments, ordering medicine, and tracking your health. We can help with different apps, such as SystmOnline, Airmid, NHS app and Viso – Blood Pressure At Home app, and we’re happy to answer any questions you have.
