💊✨ Did you know your local pharmacy can do far more than just hand out prescriptions? Under the Pharmacy First scheme, pharmacists can now help with a range of common conditions — often without needing a GP appointment! 🙌

💬 They can offer advice, treatments and even prescribe for minor illnesses. So next time you’re under the weather, head to your local pharmacy first.

Industrial action is taking place this week, and NHS services across Surrey are already extremely busy.

Surrey’s Joint Chief Medical Officer is asking residents to use NHS services responsibly, choose the right service for their needs, and help protect care for those who need it most.

🔹 Consider Pharmacy First for minor illnesses
🔹 Use NHS 111 for advice and guidance
🔹 Only use A&E for emergencies

This time the impact of industrial action is expected to be exacerbated by the high demand for services already being experienced, with cases of flu peaking earlier and predicted to grow, amid mounting concerns over what is expected to be one of the worst flu seasons the NHS has seen.

A Clinical Pharmacist is another qualified member of a GP surgery team.

You’ll be referred to a Clinical Pharmacist so they can decide which medicines will work best for you – or check the ones you already take – especially if you have a long-term condition or several conditions.

Here at our practice, we have a Clinical Pharmacist plus other healthcare professionals with expert skills and knowledge who work alongside your GP. Being referred to one of our healthcare professionals means you’ll still be treated by someone with the right skills and knowledge for your problem or condition. It will always be your choice but means you may not need to wait to see your GP and may be seen sooner!

👂💡 Ear infections can be painful and frustrating, but knowing the facts can make all the difference! Whether it’s a common middle ear infection or a less common fungal type, it’s helpful to recognise the signs and take steps early.
