Roll out of NHS Wi-Fi to GP surgeries begins

Roll out of NHS Wi-Fi to GP surgeries begins NHS Digital has begun roll out of NHS Wi-Fi to GP surgeries in England and it should be completed by 31 December 2017.

Using NHS Wi-Fi, patients will be able to access the internet free of charge in their GP's waiting room, via their smart phone or tablet. It will enable patients to link in with local health clinics and services and is paving the way for future developments in digital patient care.

Internet access will be granted through an NHS.UK landing page which will host national healthcare information alongside locally generated content from the general practice or CCG, such as information about local clinics and health services. Patients can use the service to access and download health apps, browse the internet and look up health and care information. OnMedica
