WaitLess is a patient empowerment app designed to help patients make an informed decision about where to the seek urgent medical attention, avoiding busy A&E departments where possible.
The App helps patients identify the fastest route to receiving care for non-life-threatening emergencies, by presenting combined live waiting-times for Minor Injury Units (MIUs), Urgent Treatment Centres (UTCs), Walk-In Centres, (WICs) and Emergency Departments (EDs), and indicative travel time information for all urgent care facilities across a locality.
The App gives patients the option to call 999 or 111 or access the 111 web-app, before patients to proceed to WaitLess.
WaitLess clearly displays the number of patients waiting in a treatment centre, wait times for the longest waiting patient, as well as travel time information for multiple modes of transport with directions to each facility, and ranks each site in fastest order.
With just one click, the app will geo-locate the patient and redirect to the google map service on their device to present live directions and travel routes.
In addition to this, the app provides detailed site and service information for each treatment centre, including opening hours, treatments offered, parking facilities and disabled access details.
WaitLess also displays a directory of pharmacies within the locality, allowing patients to access details such as services provided on site, opening hours, address details and contact telephone numbers, along with directions via google maps.
WaitLess is designed to help patients get the treatment they need more quickly by presenting alternative care locations to help them avoid long queues and wait times. By using the WaitLess App, patients will help the NHS to reduce pressure in busy A&E departments and provide lifesaving emergency treatment to those who really need it.
The app displays waiting times for adults only. If you are seeking care for a child under 16, please dial 111. For serious injuries and medical emergencies please call 999.

★★★★★
Great idea for an app! People just have to remember that waiting in A&E or a Minor injuries unit is actually a good thing. It means you are not dying and will survive until those more critically unwell are seen first. NHS emergency departments are not like a queue at the shops where first come first seen, people are assessed on how unwell they are and seen accordingly. Hence, the only issue with this app being the user not understanding how the NHS works.
★★★★★
Really exceptional idea and I've always had great success with the app. I work in primary care, and it's a great option for patients who might not be able to access their GP due to high demand. I would love to know from the developers if this service has plans to expend into other areas? Particularly SE London/London?
★★★★★
Great app for people living in the Kent and Midway area
★★☆☆☆
This apo is terrible. I live in London, and it's telling me my nearest is in Kent. Not worth the download!
★★☆☆☆
Doesn't actually work! I load the app to see the local wait times and it constantly says something went wrong!!! Useless!
★★☆☆☆
1 hour 50 minutes waiting according to the app... in the hospital, 3 hours 30 mins! Until they can link the hospital up properly this is just a map of hospitals.
