The NHS App for libraries

How your library can help people access NHS services and health information.

The NHS App offers a simple and secure way for people to access NHS services.

People can download the NHS App on their smartphone or tablet, or log in to the NHS account on a web browser.

People can find the same services that are in the NHS App in their NHS account on the NHS website, using a computer or laptop.
