For Episode 11 of The Only Way is Ethics podcast, we celebrate digital health and clinical risk management with a special guest, Gerry Bolger.

In this episode, we dive into Gerry's journey through digital health, reflecting on the key roles he's held during his clinical practice. We'll also discuss the upcoming review of NHS safety standards (DCB0129/0160) and what it means for the wider community.
