Digital bus DORA brings Health Apps to Southland
During April, DORA Te Waka Matihiko Hauora, a mobile learning centre, will be touring Southland helping people join the growing numbers who are benefitting from having online access to their health records. DORA will be visiting 13 areas in Southland, promoting the benefits of online access to health information, and helping people use their digital tech such as smartphones or tablets.
Most practices in Southland offer an online health portal, many use Manage My Health. The trainers on DORA will be able to help people use their online portals as well as assist with any tech problems.
