"I joined the NHS because I wanted to make a real difference to healthcare in Wales."

Meet Andrew, one of our Business Change Facilitators 👋

Andrew works in our Primary Care Services team and helps support GP practice migrations across Wales.
Digital health works best when we put people at the centre of what we do and Andrew and his team are working hard to support GP practices, improving the daily experience of our users and enhancing patient care across the country.

Chris Moreton, Deputy Director of Finance and Business Assurance and Rhys Dauncey, who is now Head of Digital Infrastructure at Velindre, recently attended the Health and Social Care Climate Emergency Leadership Day in Cardiff 🌱

It was great to share the results of our Ecosia pilot and learn alongside colleagues from across NHS Wales and social care, as we work together to strengthen our approach to sustainable digital services.

Community organizations play a vital role in digital inclusion.

That's why we're working with the Chinese In Wales Association to support digital inclusion and help more people access the NHS Wales App 📱

This pilot project focuses on building confidence and trust in digital health tools within the Chinese community, particularly among older adults and family carers. Support is being delivered in Cantonese and Mandarin, through group sessions, 1 to 1 support and trusted community networks.

With culturally appropriate training and volunteer support, the project aims to improve digital skills, reduce isolation and help people access health and care services more easily.

If you work with communities who could benefit from digital health tools, we're running NHS Wales App Digital Inclusion Champion sessions during February and March.

A digital list of approved medicines is helping Welsh Ambulance Service paramedics give patients faster, safer care. The Welsh Formulary, created by DHCW, gives advanced paramedics instant access to the medicines they can prescribe, helping them make quick and confident decisions when treating patients.

Sofia Fernandez, Lead Pharmacist in WAST, said: “This has been very positively received by all practitioners. Having a Welsh Ambulance Service specific formulary is making a real difference to our staff.”
