Digital Liverpool, Our Digital Future (1 April 2017)

Only managed to skim-read this, but it looks amazing.....hope this is the future vision for us all.  Looks like we can learn so much from the team at Liverpool.

A personal frustration.... can anyone help please....?

We tend to use email a lot to alert us of new policies, reminders, departmental changes, updates, news, team discussion threads etc.  I also tend to use my email as a filing system to help me organise my workload (less clinical-related stuff) and often refer back to many emails using the search function when needed.  Some emails I keep for revalidation if I have been thanked or praised.  I am also reluctant to delete emails as I have had to use them as a form of documented proof on some occasions.

Even though I try to be as ruthless as possible, delete attachments and save large emails to my personal drive on the hospital network, I am always running out of digital space (email and drive space).  This then prevents me from sending or receiving important email correspondents. (PS I have already asked IT to increase my space limit).

I have noticed this must not just be a personal problem as I have frequently sent group emails out and received automatic replies that certain email users will not receive my mail as their inboxes are full.  This seems like a potential patient safety risk if some users are not receiving certain important information (not to mention the wasted time trying to sift through endless emails in an attempt to delete something less important).

Does anyone have any tips or advice for me please?

Thank you
