While we don’t have all the answers, we think we should start with a set of founding principles and build from there.
I have been a member of the Technology Enabled Care (TEC) Programme team since August 2019. With a degree in business and a post grab certificate in Project Management, I am a PRINCE2 practitioner and I have also previously worked as a Project Support Officer in NHS Western Isles. I provide support for the Digital Social Care Programme, the Transforming Local Systems Programme, and the TEC Programme Lead.
When not updating project documents or attending meetings I enjoy spending my time by the sea (weather permitting) and at a local pole, bungee and aerial fitness studio.
This Phase One Evaluation Report report is an early-stage qualitative review of the TEC TLS Pathfinders workstream undertaken on behalf of the Programme Director. Its purpose is to identify any immediate learning for the programme that can inform future stages, and to capture early stakeholder feedback as part of overall evaluation before it is lost to the programme.
