The new NHS App (www.nhs.uk/nhs-app)
The NHS App provides a simple and secure way to access a range of healthcare services on your smartphone or tablet. With the NHS app you can:
- Order a repeat prescription through your NHS account on the NHS App – the app lists all the repeat medications and so is safer and quicker. There is no need to call the pharmacy or drop paper into the practice. You can track the progress of the request, nominate a pharmacy for your GP to send your prescriptions to or create a token to take to an alternative pharmacy. It is v easy and convenient.
- Book and manage some appointments
- View your GP health record to see information like your allergies and medicines (if your GP has given you access to your detailed medical record, you can also see information like test results)
- Book and manage COVID-19 vaccinations
- Register your organ donation decision
- Choose how the NHS uses your data
- View your NHS number (find out what your NHS number is) – this is important for Klinik connectivity to EMIS.
- Use NHS 111 online to answer questions and get instant advice or medical help near you
In time, we think more services will be available via the app.
