NHS: Software
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how many languages the NHS app will be available in by 2035.
Answered by Dr Zubir Ahmed
The 10-Year Health Plan recently committed to offering services in the NHS App in multiple languages to reach people who have difficulty with English where it is not their first language. Scoping has started to understand how to deliver this in a safe and cost-effective way, so that translations are reliable, consistent across patient journeys, accessible by those that they are intended for, and are making good use of public funds. The NHS App is currently available in English and Welsh.
