The local GP surgeries will soon be moving over to EPS (electronic prescribing system) which means that the use of paper prescriptions will stop for most patients and instead we will receive your prescriptions via electronic transfer.
To allow your GP surgery to automatically send us your prescriptions, we need to receive your "nomination". This is basically just a statement that you have given consent for us to receive and dispense your prescriptions going forward.
Importantly, the process of ordering your prescription and the turn around times will not change. There should not be any disruption to your prescription journey.
Thank you to those who have already given us their nomination. For those in the pharmacy over the next two weeks, please let us know if you are happy to give us your nomination. For those who may not be in the pharmacy for a while, you can email us for your nomination at info@hopwoodspharmacy.co.uk
Please note that there have been reports of certain pharmacies in the local area automatically submitting patient nominations without first obtaining consent. This is not allowed and either verbal or written consent must be given to your chosen pharmacy.
We thank you for your continued support and we hope we can count on you nominating us as your chosen pharmacy going forward.
