111 Service for deaf and hard of hearing
SignVideo is a service that enables deaf (and hearing) British Sign Language (BSL) users to communicate with hearing people via an online BSL interpreter. SignVideo can be accessed using a computer or via the SignVideo app on your smartphone or tablet.
Once you have contacted the SignVideo service, the interpreter will contact us by telephone and relay your conversation with a member of our team, e.g. a Nurse Advisor or a Health Information Adviser, depending on what the problem is. You will be asked a series of questions to assess your needs and will be provided with the healthcare advice or information you need, or directed to the local service that can help you best. The SignVideo service is available 7 days a week, between 8.00am and midnight.
For more information and guidance on how to download the service onto your computer, tablet or smartphone, visit SignVideo.
If you are deaf or hard of hearing and don’t use BSL or have access to a computer, tablet or smartphone, you can still contact 111 via Next Generation Text/Text Relay (previously known as Type Talk) by dialling 18001 111.
