Talk to Shuri members and allies on Digital Health Discourse

Did you know we have a discussion group that all members and allies can join and use to ask questions, get advice, debate and discuss all things Shuri and digital health and care? It's on the Digital Health Networks website and we will be posting more updates there over the next months.

We will have regular updates from Vicky Kong, Lead Medicines Optimisation Pharmacist and Shuri Digital Fellow, who will be covering the Digital Health CCIO network meetings and posting monthly updates to share with the Shuri Network.
