We're hosting an important discussion on the 24th April 'How’s your Rural Health?', hearing insights from healthcare practitioners and campaigners from Skye, Dumfries & Galloway and Caithness. Share your experiences of rural healthcare. Register here: tinyurl.com/bddtyd2b

All set to speak later about NHSNearMe and how can you afford not to use it? @Futuscot_News #FSHealth

Jonathan Cameron: for me, digital is the hope on the horizon. It’s the one area we are going to have to invest in to overcome the incredibly challenging circumstances we find ourselves in. #FSHealth

Karen Hedge says she is an ambassador for health and social care. She says it doesn’t have to be health first and social care second! ‘Because the crisis is here and now’. #FSHealth

However Crooks does say Scotland is on that journey - he says he’s not here to be a prophet of doom and gloom! The future for me is let us give more digital technology into the hands of citizens - using smart AI to make better informed decisions! #FSHealth

It's that time of the week it's to #TryAToolTuesday .

This week we highlight NHS Waiting Well Hub #Trusted #Free #DigitalHealth

Supports people who may be waiting to see a healthcare specialist or to get health and social care services. nhsinform.scot/waiting-well/ NHS 24
