Humber Health apps

During these restricted times where we have reduced face-to-face contact with our patients and are increasingly delivering support via technology, it is a great time to remind you of hnyhub.app.humberandnorthyorkshire.org.uk; the region’s own library of reviewed health and care apps. Patients could be using apps to support their lifestyle management (e.g. smoking cessation, fitness, diet), mental wellbeing (anxiety, depression, sleep), and condition management (diabetes, COPD, dementia) and with this site we have a trusted resource that we can point them to.
