Event details
For the past 10 years, the NHS has been working toward the delivery of an Integrated Care System which aims to break down barriers between services and deliver a holistic model of care.
SilverCloud® by Amwell® is widely used and has shown successful results in NHS Talking Therapies Services.
As the NHS moves towards a more integrated care system, community mental health services are utilising digital to support a more holistic patient experience and enable clinicians to deliver mental health care more effectively.
In this webinar, Douglas Hiscock CPsychol, Behavioural Health Lead at SilverCloud by Amwell, will discuss how the NHS are using and can use digital to support integrated care.
