Mary’s Story is a vision of a potential NHS of the future, supported by new computer systems being delivered as part of the NHS National Programme for IT. We follow the journey of Mary Roberts – a bowel cancer patient – as she travels through the health system, beginning with her diagnosis and ending with her successful treatment.

With better access to accurate and timely information about Mary’s condition, this interactive video illustrates the benefits that new systems will bring both patients and clinicians.

Please be aware that the video refers to the topic of bowel cancer which you may find distressing.
