Digital Developments in Primary Care

Doctors Sara and Lisa speak to Dr Chris Nortcliff who is a GP and Chief Clinical Information Officer for Greater Manchester Primary Care Provider Board. The discussion is focussed around all things digital in primary care. We start with an overview of how the digital environment is set up within Greater Manchester. We then spend some time talking about digital inclusion - covering how to find people, how to help upskill them to be more digitally literate, and how to support better access to digital services. We also explore what is available in the digital space to help in primary care, and touch on AI and large language models.

You can use these podcasts as part of your CPD - we don’t do certificates but they still count :)
