We are working on putting our patients onto the Electronic Repeat Dispensing Scheme (eRD) This means we will review your regular or repeat prescriptions and send enough medication electronically to a pharmacy of your choice up until your next birthday. During the month of your birthday, you will be invited in for bloods/BP (if appropriate) then your eRD will be set back up again.
You do not need to do anything.
You can then collect your MONTHLY medication from your pharmacy when you have 5-7 days left of your current supply, if you have your prescription delivered to your home then you do not need to do anything.
Your GP will set up eRD for you.
Benefits of eRD allows your GP to prescribe your regular medicines for up to a year. It’s reliable, secure, and confidential. Your regular prescriptions are stored securely on the NHS database, so they'll be ready at the pharmacy each time you need them.
Using eRD you can:
· Save time by avoiding unnecessary trips or calls to your GP every time you need to order a repeat prescription
· Pick up your repeat prescriptions directly from your pharmacy without having to visit your GP
· Spend less time waiting for your prescription in the pharmacy or GP practice,
You can find more information at: www.nhsbsa.nhs.uk/eRD-patients
If you are interested in using this scheme, please contact the surgery and your details will be passed to our pharmacy team.
Did you know you can order all your regular medication through the NHS App. This is quick, safe and can be done from your mobile device 24 hours a day. Please click on the following link for more information. https://www.nhs.uk/nhs-app/

Introduction to our new Senior Pharmacy Technician
My name is Paula Taylor Fdsc, BA (hons), and I am the Registered Senior Pharmacy Technician for Clifton House Medical Centre.
Years ago a pharmacy technician would only be found in a community pharmacy however over the last few years the role has become so much more.
Please ask for the pharmacy technician if you require any medicines information:
- You are unsure what medication you should be taking?
- Have concerns about your new or current medication?
- Experiencing side effects?
- Need a medication review?
- Or, anything relating to medication whether its big or small!
We have recently updated the name of our prescription team. They will now be called The Pharmacy Team. The change has been made as we introduce our newest member of staff, Paula, our Senior Pharmacy Technician. As the team will now work on much more than just issuing repeat prescriptions, we felt this warranted a new name. If you need to speak to the Pharmacy team you will find them on Option 2 when you call the surgery. They are available to speak to between 10am and 4pm Monday to Friday.
Marmot Primary Care Network (PCN) currently delivers an “extended access” service which provides evening and weekend appointments for patients who are registered with practices that belong to Marmot PCN and also patients who are registered with practices that belong to Symphonie PCN.

Appointments are available at Bransholme Health Centre (7 days a week) and Elliott Chappell Health Centre (Wednesday and Saturdays) and are currently booked via your own GP practice.
To ensure that we are meeting the needs of our patients and providing access to appointments that are convenient and accessible, we would like to gather your views in relation to our current service and how we might deliver the service in the future.
