Introduction to Healthcare Apps – 11th February 2014
Ewan Davis – Director HANDIHealth Community Interest Company
2. The Vision
• That, in the future, every citizen should have access to a set of
digital tools and services that support every aspect of their health,
care and wellbeing, and that of those they care for. In addition, these
tools will allow for the collection, and analysis of data to enhance our
knowledge of health and wellbeing and help us plan, deliver and
evaluate continuously improving services.
• By harnessing the power of digital technology in the uniquely fertile
environment provided by the NHS not only will we be able to
address the challenges of an aging population and the increasing
demand for affordable care but we will also ensure the better health
of future generations and create economic opportunities for the UK.
