My Medical Record is a free and secure website where you can access information about your post cancer treatment follow-up. It is currently available to a limited number of cancer specialties at North Bristol NHS Trust.
The website enables you to self-manage your follow-up care from home, and allow your cancer support team to remotely monitor your test results and provide support. In many cases this will reduce the number of outpatient appointments you need to attend at the hospital. You will be invited by a member of your cancer support team to access My Medical Record at an appropriate point in your pathway.
How to sign up
When appropriate, your Consultant or Clinical Nurse Specialist will refer you to have your follow-up remotely monitored by the cancer support team. You will then be introduced to the My Medical Record website and offered access.
To register for My Medical Record you will need to provide an email address and telephone number.
If you are already registered on My Medical Record, please visit My medical record (uhs.nhs.uk).

- Information and support to help you to self-manage during your follow up.

What if I do not have access to the internet?
If you do not have internet access or an email address, you may decide to allow a family member or friend to help you access the system or log in on your behalf. You must get their consent to do this as we will store their email address and telephone number with your details.
