Its not just developers and product folk, the APS needs policy makers who understand how tech can help solve problems. This is a conversation we desperately need to have https://t.co/bNYPrYr0it

Australia. What a country.

It’s not uncommon for digital to mean more work for NHS & social care staff.

For example remote monitoring tech generates data to analyse & manage on top of existing workloads.

Tech can help improve services but staff are equally needed.

I've been hearing from people, especially young people, how challenging it is to access mental health support. Long wait lists & gap fees at all time highs. We need to find ways to improve access before we cut funding to the Better Access Scheme.

Glad I'm working from home today so I could cry ugly & loud while watching this. A really important thing that this message has found a high-profile platform this Christmas. Hopefully the start of many conversations (and applications).

Still makes me cry, no matter how many times I've watched it.

@Skinner_M @TPXimpact @CareCityUK Congrats Matt, that's so exciting!

Projects like this kidney allocation algorithm really ram home how important it is to have public servants who deeply understand the tools available to solve problems and their limits, not to mention the courage to be transparent about those limits.
