Mental health app now available on Android

Mental health app now available on Android

A successful mental health support app has been released on Android devices for Armed Forces personnel wherever they are across the world.


As today, 10 October 2013, is World Mental Health Day, service personnel are being reminded that the Joining Forces app is available on Android and Apple devices.
The mobile application, or ‘app’, provides tailored information about 11 mental health problems, including anxiety, post-traumatic stress and depression, as well as highlighting where to access help.
Interactive videos from a lead psychiatrist are also available through the app and outline the signs of mental health problems to encourage personnel to seek advice if they feel they have any of these symptoms.
Joining Forces has been developed by a network of National Health Service (NHS) Trusts, led by South Staffordshire and Shropshire Healthcare NHSFoundation Trust.
