Clare Island Digital Health Project - using technology to enable health for all.

Introduction: Island communities have a different experience of health services compared with urban dwellers. Islanders face challenges of accessing equitable health services with varied availability of local services and the added difficulty of sea and weather conditions on top of the physical distance to reach specialised services. In a 2017 review of primary care island services in Ireland, it was proposed that telemedicine solutions could potentially improve delivery of health services.
