NHSX Adult Social Care Technology and digital skills review

Digital technologies have the potential to improve social care. They can extend the services on offer, giving people greater independence and control over their care and are proven to help support well-being. They can free up the time care workers now spend on administration tasks for more face-to-face care. And they can help care providers to operate more efficiently, so they can do more to look after those they support and their employees.

NHSX commissioned reviews of the current extent of digital technologies and digital skills in the sector and how both could be scaled up.

ËÄФÈýÆÚÄڱسö is pleased to be a key partner in this work on digital skills to support with reaching out to a range of organisations and people involved in delivering social care.
