Pharmacy & Dispensary Update 16th October – installation of ROBOT

Posted by: emmaedwards - Posted on:

The ROBOT is now installed and the shop refit almost complete. Ordered medication can be collected from Room 1 today however acute on the day prescriptions still need to be taken to an alternative pharmacy.

The Pharmacy & Dispensary will be closed on Tuesday 17th October 2023 to allow staff time to return all stock and equipment from temporary locations. The Pharmacy aims to re-open at 9am on Wednesday 18th October 2023.

The practice and all staff would like to thank you for your continued patience and the many messages of support during these works. We have maintained our seven working day turn around during this transition and apologise for any inconvenience these works have caused.

The ROBOT will take time to load and our staff are having to learn new ways of working so it may take several more weeks until patients start to see the improvements in service that we anticipate – please continue to bear with us and treat our staff with respect.
