Free app helps patients wait less for urgent NHS care

Patients in Kent and Medway can now use an app to view waiting times at our urgent treatment centres (UTCs) and minor injury units (MIUs).

The WaitLess app will help patients who have decided to go to a UTC or MIU make an informed choice about which site to visit. It displays the number of people waiting and the longest waiting times, along with travel information, so patients can decide to visit a site that is not so busy.

The app is available free from iPhone App Store and Google Play Store – search WaitLess. More information about using the right health service is available at www.stopthinkchoose.co.uk.
