These figures are probably well out of date now ( this was posted 9yrs ago) but the concept is still the same!!....

I understand the concept of this poster, but I feel it's not the prime costs for the NHS.
I can easily break down and destroy enough returned medicines in two carrier bags to match those costs!
The amount of wastage in over ordering repeat prescription items and retuning unwanted meds to the pharmacy is appalling.
Please only order the repeat prescriptions items you require, not the ones you were taken off 3 months ago. Check before you leave the Pharmacy that you need it all. If it hasn't left the building it can be reused, once you've left with it, it has to be destroyed if it's not required.

Ever wondered why there's a bit of a wait for your prescription to be filled? There's a lot that goes into dispensing your prescription. From checking your medicines history to reviewing allergies and other health conditions, your local community pharmacist follows a number of steps from prescription-in to medicine-out.

If you have flu, there are some things you can do to help get better more quickly.

Flu will often get better on its own, but it can make some people seriously ill. It's important to get the flu vaccine if you're eligible.

This Friday (19th December) the staff of Mountchase Pharmacy will be swapping our navy tunic tops for our festive Christmas tops.
We are wearing our Christmas Jumpers to support Cornwall Mind. This is a local charity and any money raised will stay local. We would love to raise as much as possible for the invaluable local charity and ask if you are near or coming into the Pharmacy if you could maybe pop some pennies in the collection box.
We really would love to raise as much as possible. If anyone would like any information on the work this invaluable charity does I will have some leaflets and booklets available on the day. Many Thanks
EDIT: if anyone would like to donate online please click on the QR code below. It would be great if you can mention you are helping Mountchase to support . Thank you again.
