OUR I.T ISSUES HAVE BEEN RESOLVED AS FROM TODAY, HOWEVER, THERE HAS BEEN A BACK LOG OF PRESCRIPTIONS, TASKS AND TELEPHONE APPOINTMENTS TO BE COMPLETED DUE TO THE I.T FAILURES, SO PLEASE COULD THE PATIENTS BEAR WITH THE SURGERY.
ALL THE STAFF ARE WORKING AT MAXIMUM CAPACITY TO GET EVERYTHING UPTO DATE IN THE NEXT 24HRS.
ALL PATIENTS CAN NOW MAKE APPOINTMENTS (E.G FACE TO FACE OR TELEPHONE) AND REQUEST MEDICATION AND PHONE FOR RESULTS AS USUAL.
Repeat prescription requests will be processed by the NHS Prescription Ordering Direct Service and the practice will no longer take requests for repeat prescriptions from your pharmacy. You will need to phone the POD service on 0300 131 1100 to order your medicines instead of phoning or visiting your pharmacy to make an order. The POD will arrange for your prescription to be sent electronically to a pharmacy of your choice and dispensed as normal. This is a pilot service being run by DGS & Swale CCG’s for 12 months, alongside other GP Practices. This will help to deliver improved care to patients and reduce medicines waste. The CCG, on behalf of the practice, will process your personal data (with your consent) in order to review and manage your repeat prescription.”
We are now offering telephone consultations only from 8am-12am daily to speak to a GP/Nurse/Paramedic Practitioner
