NHS App 2

What does the NHS App do?

Use the NHS App to:

  • order repeat prescriptions
  • nominate a pharmacy where you would like to collect your prescriptions
  • book and manage appointments
  • view your GP health record to see information i.e. allergies and medicines 
  • View test results
  • book and manage COVID-19 vaccinations
  • register your organ donation decision
  • choose how the NHS uses your data
  • view your NHS number
  • use NHS 111 online to answer questions and get instant advice or medical help near you

Keeping your data secure

To access the NHS App, you will need to set up an NHS login and prove who you are. Your NHS 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 your NHS App each time, instead of using a password and security code.
