Our Pharmacy

 

NHS services we provide

We dispense NHS prescriptions (paper and electronic) and will give advice on how to get the most benefit from your medicines. We keep a comprehensive stock of medicines and use a fast and an efficient wholesaler service to enable us to dispense all prescriptions promptly. We can also dispense NHS repeat dispensing prescriptions. Ask us for more information about this service. All medicines are dispensed in child resistant containers unless you ask us not to. Please remember: keep all medicines out of the reach and sight of children. Our staff can advise you on safe storage of medicines. Delivery is provided free of charge to a UK address of your choice.

Unwanted medicines

Please contact us to arrange collection of unwanted medicines to the pharmacy where we will dispose of them safely. Alternatively, you can take them to a local pharmacy. Do not dispose of them via household waste or down the toilet.

Health advice and self-care

Our pharmacists and trained assistants are available to provide advice on all medicines and minor ailments. We can also give you advice on how to live a healthy life, for example, advice on how to stop smoking or healthy diets. We can direct you to other sources of advice and assistance if we cannot help you ourselves.

Patient records

We keep records of all your prescriptions dispensed by us as well as records of other services we provide to you. This helps us check for possible problems, such as reactions between medicines and will help us deal with any queries you may have.

We comply with the Data Protection Act and the NHS Code on Confidentiality. If you want to discuss the records we keep, please contact us.

We provide the above NHS services on behalf of NHS England, PO Box 16738, Redditch, B97 9PT
