Apps present a fantastic opportunity to provide us with valuable health information which can help us not only improve the quality of our healthcare, but also help us to live healthier lives. However; the market is awash with apps, and we have no way of seeing to whether what is being downloaded will actually improve our health or if our personal data will be stored safely

For that reason, NHS partners across Humber, have partnered up with ORCHA (the Organisation for the Review of Care and Health Applications) to provide this site to solve just those problems.

ORCHA carry out independent and impartial reviews of health and care related apps, and the resultant information is clearly presented throughout this website. You can be reassured that any apps shown on this site have undergone a rigorous review process, and can feel confident that the best apps have been chosen.

By bringing this information to our fingertips, it is now possible to identify and compare the best apps for our needs – and to ensure that we, and our friends and families, can get access to quality assured apps.
