What happens at Unichem Otorohanga Pharmacy after my Dr sends my script?

💊 The email script arrives and is automatically printed (this can take time to arrive)
💊 The Pharmacist files the script in the "to-do" pile in time/date order of when it arrived.Sometimes the pile is little other times there can be 30- 50 prescriptions ahead of you.
💊 Urgent antibiotics and other acute illness scripts are prioritized to do first and we text when they are ready.
💊 Non-urgent scripts are done as we can and sent a text when ready.
💊 Blister packs are also done as we can and if you’re organised and get your prescription on time we will have here waiting when you a due. Sometimes we have it processed just not quite made we will get done ASAP. We literally have hundreds to do 🫣

Please note: during very busy days or if we are short-staffed, things may take a bit longer. But we will always work hard to make sure we get through our workload as safely and efficiently as possible 💙

Kia ora koutou.
You may have seen updates about the Manage My Health cyber incident.

Otorohanga Medical moved from the Manage My Health patient portal to the myIndici patient portal in September 2024. However, we have been informed that historical patient data may still be visible on the MMH platform unless this was actively closed by the patient.

If you were previously registered on the MMH patient portal and are concerned, you may wish to close your account. Please note that this is entirely your choice.

If you do want to close your Manage My Health account, you can do this via the web version of Manage My Health. If you start in the app, go to Help and Support first, which will redirect you to the web version.

Web version (or redirected from the app):
1. Click the profile icon (top right).
2. Click Profile.
3. Select Close Account.
4. A prompt will appear advising account closure and subsequent data deletion will occur 72 hours after your request.

Manage My Health is managing the notification process and will contact affected people directly. Our practice can’t confirm whether an individual patient was affected.

For the latest updates and advice, please use Manage My Health’s cyber breach FAQs:
