Help at home

Technology is changing the way we manage our health. Mobile phone apps like NHS Direct allow you to check your symptoms if you are feeling unwell, get an assessment, information about your condition and advice on how to look after yourself. Telehealth monitoring equipment enables people with complex conditions to stay at home, but also still stay in touch with their GP or other health professional.
