iPhone App

The application features details of each and every health service in Bristol, their contact information, their GPS location and more, all at the touch of a button. So you can use it to find a GP, an NHS dentist or the nearest walk-in centre.

Other features include an ‘In Case of Emergency’ (ICE) option, an alert appointment reminder service and recorded messages with instructions on how to deal with specific health emergencies.

Deborah Evans, NHS Bristol chief executive, said: ‘When searching for healthcare sometimes it’s difficult to know where to go, who to see and how to get there; but now our iPhone app can help you. This application is a way for us to open services up to the public and provide genuine information and choice for patients. I’m excited at the way we can use new technologies to improve patient’s choice and I’m sure that the people of Bristol will feel the same way.’
