Summary
In this powerful blog, the author draws upon personal experience and insight to explain why she campaigns for carers and patients to have access to their own health records, and the difference this would make to patient safety.
"Despite continued promises of access to all our health information by successive politicians and the talk of new gateways to our health information linking primary, secondary and social care, to people like us it seems as far away as ever. We hear about the Empowering the Person initiative, projects to improve data flows, data standards and all those new Apps but citizens like us are still as helpless as ever standing next to that stretcher in A/E without the very basic information to save our loved one’s life in a crisis."
