A huge challenge here is that so much of the data is free text. We don't want people to do "swamp diving", rummaging through data looking for bits and pieces. Nor can we throw it all at #AI, which causes more problems, says @DocRobWaller. #NRSMH24

Dealing with routine clinical data is part of all professionals' daily lives. By this, @DocRobWaller means patient-specific data, not management data. He is outlining his board's journey of digital mental health: #NRSMH24
