Know Your Care
Understand the people behind your care
Healthcare environments can feel complex, especially when many different professionals are involved. Know Your Care is designed to help patients, families, students, and healthcare learners better understand who is delivering care, what different roles mean, and how multidisciplinary teams work together across NHS services.
Rather than presenting long, static information pages, the app provides an interactive and accessible way to explore healthcare roles, uniforms, and training journeys. Whether you are preparing for an appointment, supporting a loved one, or simply curious about how care teams operate, Know Your Care offers clear explanations designed to build confidence and understanding.
Explore Healthcare Roles
Browse and learn about a wide range of healthcare professions. Each role includes easy-to-understand descriptions, training pathways, and insights into how different team members contribute to patient care. Information is designed to be supportive and educational, helping users feel more familiar with the people they meet during appointments or hospital visits.
Interactive Tools
Know Your Care includes guided tools that help you actively explore care teams rather than just read about them. Discover how roles differ, explore training journeys, and learn how multidisciplinary teams collaborate in real healthcare settings.
Your Personal Library
Create your own space within the app by saving roles, adding notes, and building a personalised library of information that matters to you. This makes it easier to revisit content without searching again, supporting ongoing learning and preparation for future care interactions.
Accessible by Design
Accessibility has been a core focus throughout development. The app aims to support a wide range of users by providing clear layouts, simple navigation, and inclusive design principles that prioritise readability and ease of use.
Privacy-Focused Experience
Know Your Care is an educational companion and does not connect to NHS clinical systems or patient records. Personal notes and saved content are designed to remain under your control, supporting a privacy-first approach.
Who is this app for?
• Patients who want to understand who is involved in their care
• Families and carers supporting loved ones
• Healthcare students learning about multidisciplinary teams
• Anyone interested in understanding NHS roles and pathways
