NHS Service Finder allows healthcare professionals to search for health and social care organisations based on location or relevance. It makes it simpler and quicker to signpost your patients to the most appropriate care.

NHS Service Finder has been developed by the NHS, for the NHS. It contains accurate information kept continuously updated with information from the Directory of Services. It removes the reliance on old, outdated directories, and individual local knowledge in your organisation.

You can search for NHS Service Finder by service, location, or keyword. The results will be presented as a list or in a map view so you can see which services are nearby. NHS Service Finder can also provide directions, and these can be shared directly with patients.

NHS Service Finder is a completely free, browser-based service with no extra technology requirements. You can access it on mobile or desktop devices and it only takes 2 minutes to register with your NHSmail address. You can also register with a non NHSmail email address, but it may take longer for you to be verified.

Register today and try it out.
