The NHS App

  

  • Safe and secure messaging - you can trust the messages received in the NHS App inbox
  • Messages from multiple care settings in one place
  • Unaffected by contact detail changes - NHS App notifications are linked to your NHS number

 

The NHS App is continually being developed to give you more access to and more control of your health record. Allowing you to manage your own health and keep track of things.

Save the NHS money

Reduce the NHS spend on patient communications - messages sent via the NHS App are free of charge.

Make sure you have notifications turned on in the NHS App and all messages will be in the same place, from us, and any other service you may be under.

Messages from us will come through as NHS App push notifications which are free!
However, a backup text message is sent to you if:

  • You don't have the NHS App 
  • You have Notifications off 
  • The Message is not read

This costs the NHS a LOT of money. Please see below for how to turn on notifications and the rest of the page for help in setting up the NHS App if you don't already have it
