Role Of Service

Our pharmacy team is made up of Clinical Pharmacists and a Pharmacy Technician.

Clinical pharmacists are experts in medicines and can support patients with long-term conditions such as asthma, diabetes, and high blood pressure or patients who are taking multiple medicines to make sure their medication is working.

The team works with GPs, local pharmacies and hospitals to make sure medicine services are joined up.

Some examples of what the team can support with:

  • Structured Medicine Reviews
  • Asthma reviews
  • Diabetic reviews
  • Care home medication reviews
  • Medicine optimisation scheme work
  • Audits (checking medication administration to ensure they are prescribed in
  • line with guidelines)
  • Hypertension support
  • Electronic dispensing
  • Dealing with repeat medication queries

How to get in contact with our Pharmacy Team:

Your practice will book you in with a clinical pharmacist if they feel you would benefit from their service regarding the problem you are calling for. If you would like to speak with a clinical pharmacist, please let your practice know and, if they feel it is appropriate, they will book you an appointment.
