Care, together, from the day they come home. A UK app for families, coming to iPhone.

Coming Home is a companion, organiser and signposting app for families. It is not a medical device and it does not give medical advice.

Coming Home is not an emergency service

If you're worried about someone's health:

  • Contact their GP for advice and appointments.
  • Call NHS 111 or go to 111.nhs.uk if you need medical help fast and it's not an emergency.
  • Call 999 in an emergency.
