  • First Minister John Swinney will set out his strategy to revive the NHS - by creating thousands of extra appointments and a new "digital front door" health and social care app.

John Swinney, Scotland's Deputy First Minister, has outlined a comprehensive plan to revitalize the NHS, focusing on creating a "digital front door" to enhance patient access to healthcare services. This initiative aims to integrate digital tools to streamline patient interactions, from booking appointments to accessing medical records and receiving care. The blueprint includes the development of a new digital platform that would serve as a one-stop-shop for health services, reducing wait times and administrative burdens. Additionally, Swinney's plan emphasizes improving staff retention and recruitment, investing in technology to support clinical decision-making, and fostering a more efficient, patient-centered approach to healthcare delivery. This strategy is part of a broader effort to modernize the NHS, making it more responsive and accessible in the digital age.
