THE learning disability team at Barnsley Hospital has won two awards for designing an app which will improve care for people with learning diasbilities when they visit the hospital.
It won an award in the peer vote and another from the panel of judges at the Digital Health Design Challenge at the Digital Media Centre.
The challenge brought together technology innovators, healthcare professionals and patients to create new products for the NHS and healthcare sector, with the hospital team challenged to improve patient experience through use of digital technology.
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
