NEWS2, not NEWS

The app works very nicely, but there is inconsistent naming of NEWS/NEWS2 through the app which made me a little apprehensive about trusting it.

Useful app

This is a useful App. It is the latest version of the National Early Warning Score system, NEWS2, in a clear, easy to use format. As a very experienced Clinician I am more than happy to encourage the use of any app that increases confident use of this System.

Anybody who is concerned about the valid use of NEWS and NEWS2 terminology, should read the Royal College of Physicians documentation, that appropriately uses both terms.
