Change to Prescriptions

From the 1st of July 2023 we will require THREE WORKING DAYS to process prescription requests. This change is being made in response to the ever-increasing workload pressures on our clinicians. It is not a decision we have taken lightly but is one that we need to take in order to ensure that prescription processing is done efficiently, whist maintaining patient safety as our priority.

We debated long and hard before deciding to share this

We debated long and hard before deciding to share this video on our social media sites. The overwhelming majority of our patients are incredibly understanding of the pressure our service is under and how hard our doctors and staff are working in incredibly difficult circumstances and we would not wish to cause them any offence. However most of our Reception and Prescription staff have been subjected to the type of behaviour exhibited in the video, as have a number of our doctors and nurses. We therefore concluded that if our staff are subjected to this once it is once too often and on that basis we decide to share it with you. Thank you for your continued support and understanding.
