That's awful all-round Ruth, sorry to hear that.

Dammit, couldn't even spell it right.

Important work talking about the factor fextectorans though.

Gold star to the person who made the point that good recordkeeping leads to good archives, which got a little lost in the chat!

And if so, what do we need to do as record keepers? A hell of a lot, in terms of data transfer and operability, of course- but what struck me was how radical the quite commonsense stuff in the meeting actually was.

So does the digital give us a chance to rework this, to ask patients and practitioners what they want, and how it should be managed?

The laws, structures and methods that govern the sector have always come from the administrative organisations governing them, and these usually (tho not always) come from a place of management of cost and risk.
