Dispensed Medication: Non-dispensed Medication: |
The dispensary can issue
medication for prescriptions prescribed by a doctor or nurse practitioner to the
surgery’s own patients who live more than a mile from the nearest chemist.
This is a health authority ruling and it is not at the discretion of
the doctor. If you do not meet this criterion but believe that you have
special needs that would benefit from being a dispensing patient then you may
appeal to the Primary Care Trust by completing an RD1 form. Please ask
reception for this form. To qualify for this service you must complete a Rural
Dispensing Application Form for all members of your family at the time of
registration. Arrangements for
patients for whom we are not allowed to dispense (i.e. those living within 1
mile of a chemists shop): - Signed prescriptions can be collected from reception in
person OR - Prescriptions can be sent to Procters
Chemist at your request. Please specify whether this is to the High Street or
Station Road OR - We can post a signed prescription back to you if you supply
an SAE with your request |
|
Opening times: |
The dispensary is open Monday to Friday from 08:45 to 12:00 noon and 02:00 pm to 06:30 pm, excluding Bank Holidays. In case of difficulty, completed prescriptions can be picked up from reception by prior arrangement before 08:45 am.
