How we're led Connecting NHS workers to the Openreach network
During Coronavirus, we know that working in the NHS has been tough, you’ve all gone above and beyond working on the front line. We know you’ve had to put up with a lot, but slow, unreliable broadband shouldn’t be on that list.
With more and more NHS workers starting to work from home, we know that great connectivity is vital to allow you to access the tools that you need, and to reach out to your patients in new ways such as video conferencing, where face to face appointments are unfortunately no longer an option. And for those working in surgeries, communities and health centres, ensuring that you and your team have the fastest and most reliable broadband connection is essential for productivity.
