The app has been updated to include the ability to change the font and background of the easy read information. Unfortunately, due to upcoming changes in health related apps, we have removed the hospital passport and dysphagia creation tools so the app remains free and compliant for everyone to use in the future. The app has also had some minor performance improvements.
