Services
New Medicine Service
Our New Medicine Service (NMS) provides tailored support for patients starting new medications for chronic conditions. We help improve treatment adherence through structured follow-ups and address potential side effects early. This free NHS service focuses on conditions like hypertension, diabetes, and respiratory diseases, with pharmacist consultations at key intervals after medication initiation.
CPCS Consultations
The Community Pharmacist Consultation Service (CPCS) offers expert advice for minor illnesses and urgent medication needs. Patients can access this NHS service through GP referrals or direct pharmacy appointments. Our pharmacists provide treatment recommendations and medication management for low-acuity health concerns, helping reduce unnecessary GP visits and hospital attendances.
Prescription Dispensing
We provide accurate prescription dispensing with expert guidance on medication use and potential interactions. Our system includes electronic prescription handling through EPS nomination and repeat dispensing arrangements. Patients receive clear instructions and safety information to ensure proper medication management and adherence to prescribed treatment plans.
Emergency Contraceptives
We supply emergency hormonal contraceptives with professional advice on appropriate use and timing. Our pharmacists provide confidential consultations to determine suitability and discuss ongoing contraceptive options. This service includes comprehensive information about effectiveness, potential side effects, and follow-up care requirements.
Medicines Discharge Service
Our Medicines Discharge Service helps patients transition smoothly from hospital to home care. We review discharge medications, explain treatment changes, and coordinate with GPs to ensure continuity of care. This service reduces readmission risks by addressing medication-related queries and ensuring patients understand their post-hospital treatment plans.
