Digital Health Ecosystem Wales (DHEW) aims to make it easier and faster to adopt digital healthcare technologies in NHS and Social Care in Wales.
We;
DHEW is a collaboration between Life Sciences Hub Wales (LSHW) and Digital Health and Care Wales (DHCW).
We have a wide and varied audience, ranging from industry, clinicians, policy makers, academics, innovators and funders from Wales, the UK and beyond.
When choosing Ecosystem activities the team is guided by our four principles:
This criteria enables us to make informed decisions on what will and won’t become part of our programme, before moving projects in to production.
We follow three workstreams which are shared between the partners:
Wales is a country of just over 3.1 million people, with seven health boards and three trusts. In comparison to others, we are a small and agile nation with an integrated digital architecture. Our small nature and culture has helped quickly build a passionate and engaged clinical, academic and industry digital health community.
For more information on the types of work we do, check out our case studies section on our website. We have piloted new technology in healthcare – testing passive RFID tagging, a physio triage chatbot, remote monitoring platforms and more.
