The NHS App
The NHS App
The Gables Medical Group would like to invite you to use The NHS App
Owned and run by the NHS, the NHS App is a simple and secure way to access a range of NHS services on your smartphone or tablet.
What The NHS App does
Use the NHS App to:
- get advice about coronavirus – get information about coronavirus and find out what to do if you think you have it
- order repeat prescriptions - see your available medicines, request a new repeat prescription and choose a pharmacy for your prescriptions to be sent to
- check your symptoms - search trusted NHS information and advice on hundreds of conditions and treatments, and get instant advice or medical help near you
- view your medical record - securely access your GP medical record, to see information like your allergies and your current and past medicines
- register your organ donation decision - choose to donate some or all of your organs and check your registered decision
- find out how the NHS uses your data - choose if data from your health records is shared for research and planning
Other services in the NHS App
If your GP surgery or hospital offers other services in the NHS App, you may be able to:
- view your hospital and other healthcare appointments
Keeping your data secure
After you download the app, you will need to set up an NHS login and prove who you are. The app then securely connects to information from your GP surgery.
If your device supports fingerprint detection or facial recognition, you can use it to log in to the NHS App each time, instead of using a password and security code.
Turn on NHS app notifications to help the NHS!
Turn on notifications for the NHS App to stay up to date with messages about your care and help reduce NHS text message costs.
If notifications are turned off, any message from your GP practice or hospital will be sent as a text message instead, which is a cost to the NHS.
The NHS App is a simple and secure way to receive messages from your trusted healthcare providers, and is of no cost to the NHS.
Find out more here and share this information with your family/friends to help the NHS.
