NHS Choices

Dear Colleagues

During the recent ADASS regional events,  NHS Choices outlined the opportunities for local authorities to re-use their social care and dementia information. There was a lot of interest in the social care and dementia widgets that were being developed.

We have just been notified by NHS Choices that the following widgets are now available:

Social Care widget                               Syndicating information fromhttp://www.nhs.uk/Conditions/social-care-and-support-guide/Pages/what-is-social-care.aspx

Dementia widget                                  Syndicating information fromhttp://www.nhs.uk/conditions/dementia-guide/Pages/dementia-choices.aspx

Social care commenting widget      Enabling local authorities to capture service user reviews for display on NHS Choices

NHS Choices is now hosting WebEx online demonstrations which can be booked by emailing Richard Moore (richard.moore10@nhs.net). The sessions demonstrate the functionality of the widgets and provide guidance on how they can be configured.  The sessions last one hour.

Best regards
