Attend Anywhere is a web-based platform that helps health and social care providers offer video call access to their services as part of their ‘business as usual’, day-to-day operations.

Apart from internet access, all that you need to use Attend Anywhere are the Chrome or Safari web browsers on a computer or mobile device. Computer users will also need a web camera (usually built into laptops) so that staff can see you, and a headset or speakers so that you can hear and be heard.

Near Me is the service name developed following consultation with members of the public. Near Me services use the Attend Anywhere platform to deliver their video consulting service.

For access to the online clinical waiting area, use Google Chrome or Safari to enter the waiting room.

When entering the waiting area, please enter your child's name and date of birth so your clinician can identify the patient. If you are the patient, please enter your own details.
