Dear fellow NTNM subscribers,

I work to make IT in health and social care as accessible as possible.

Despite teething problems, I think NTNM is fab, especially for the massive
background work obtaining and preparing material - and a possible NHS model.

Below is an invite to complete a survey on the use of email in care
settings.

Deadline is 5 October - apologies for the short notice.

This is not directly related to NHS England's Accessible Information
Standard - featured on this week's In Touch programme (BBC Radio 4, 8.40pm,
Tue 30 Sept).

However, Professor Carpenter (author of the below) and I are advisory Group
members on that work too.

Many, many thanks for your help,
Howard (Leicester).

We are emailing you to explore patient views on how email is used in health
and social care.

The PRSB (Professional Record Standards Body for health and social care) is
leading this project (www.theprsb.org). The PRSB works to ensure that the
requirements of patients and health and social care professionals are firmly
embedded in information systems. 

We are developing guidance for health and social care professionals about
the use of email to communicate patient information. Replacing paper
communications with email would save the NHS over £100m per year. 

This questionnaire will help clarify when using email is/ is not appropriate
and any concerns or issues this may pose. 

We would be grateful if you could take the time to complete a survey that
will take you no more than 7 minutes.  Click on the link below to access it.

All answers will be completely anonymous. 

If you represent a patient or professional organization, you are welcome to
submit an 'organisation' response.  If you wish to do so, please email your
response to mala.bridgelal_ram@xxxxxxxxxxxx

If you use tools to aid accessibility, please contact
mala.bridgelal_ram@xxxxxxxxxxxx for a plain text version of this survey.
Please complete the questionnaire by 5 October.

Many thanks for your help. 

Kind regards
Iain
