The Provider Podcast - The role of digital and data in improving patient safety

In episode five of our podcast mini-series, The Digital Shift, you’ll hear from Anne Kinderlerer, chief of medicine at Kingston Hospital NHS Foundation Trust and clinical digital health lead at the The Royal College of Physicians.

  • Digital

Anne speaks about the role that digital, data and Artificial Intelligence (AI) can play in improving patient safety. She reflects on her clinical role and why – at a time where quality, safety and performance are inseparable from data – board members and senior leaders have a responsibility to lead on this agenda, regardless of their digital experience. Anne shares how leaders can ask the right questions of their teams, and warns against having blind trust in AI.

This podcast series is delivered by NHS Providers in partnership with the NHS Confederation and Public Digital, and supported by NHS England as part of their NHS Digital Academy, the series explores how senior leaders in the health sector can confidently lead their organisations in the shift from analogue to digital.
