Repeat Prescriptions

Patients on long-term medication can order repeat prescriptions in the following ways:

  • Online - using the NHS App, Airmid App or SystmOnline. Ordering online is much more convenient.

Alternatively:

  • In person - drop your repeat slip off at reception with the required items clearly marked.
  • By telephone - call between 10:00 - 16:00 Monday to Friday. Call 01977 611023
  • Electronic Prescriptions at your Chemist, ask for details.
  • Pharmacies and other suppliers of medicines are NOT allowed to order on your behalf.

Please allow two full working days for prescriptions to be processed and remember to take weekends and bank holidays into account.

NHS App

The NHS App gives you a simple and secure way to access a range of NHS services. Download the NHS App on your smartphone or tablet via the Google play or App store.

You can also access the same services in a web browser by logging in through the NHS website.

 

Airmid App

Airmid is designed to bring benefit to clinician and patient alike. The seamless integration between SystmOne and Airmid brings every patient closer to their care team.

Patients have the advantage of utilising either existing SystmOnline credentials or NHS login to sign in securely.

Download the Airmid App now on the App Store or Google Play

 

Electronic Prescribing Service

This practice is set up for the electronic prescription service.

This means that for most patients we can send your prescription to your chosen pharmacy directly, saving you having to come down to the surgery.

You can nominate your preferred pharmacy using Online Services like the NHS App or alternatively let Reception know which pharmacy you would like your electronic prescriptions being sent to. 

Medication Reviews

Patients on repeat medication will be reviewed by a doctor, nurse practitioner, practice nurse or pharmacist at least once a year. If you are due a medication review, please speak to Reception.
