I spoke to a very upset elderly patient (more than 80 years old yesterday) who has hardly had any sleep the night before due to back pain and wanted to speak to a doctor. She was not online. I listened to her, suggested some painkillers and promised I would call her back today. 
I asked her as I finished if she was online at all. She replied she wasn’t but she knew her son was. So I asked her if she would like to ask her son if he might get #recordsAccessAndUnderstanding for her. She said she would ask him and then inform me today #DigitalDivide
Today I called her back as promised and she immediately gave me her son’s telephone number eager for him to access her records. I just wanted to know how her back was and if meds I had given her had helped. (She has been waiting 6 months for epidural for lumbar stenosis)
