REPEAT PRESCRIPTION CHANGES

As from 1.4.2020 all patients (or patients nominated on behalf of a patient) will have to order prescriptions direct from the GP practice.  Patients will no longer be able to order from their pharmacy, an on-line pharmacy or any on-line pharmacy apart from a dispensing contractor.  If you order directly from Clifton House you will continue to do so as the changes will not affect you.  Some pharmacies have already stopped ordering for patients

What is not changing?

If you collect your medicine from the chemist, or have delivered to your doorstep you can continue to do so.

If you order directly from Clifton House either by post, coming to surgery or 0n-line you will not be affected and do not need to do anything

What do you need to do?

You will need to make a request directly to your GP for a repeat prescription.  You can do this by:-

In person at the surgery, tick the medicines required on the tear off section on the prescription and drop it into the GP practice.

By post

Register for on-line access at the practice.  Please visit the website www.cliftonhousemedicalcentre.co.uk and follow the instructions or ask at reception.  Photographic ID will be required.

Order through the NHS app.  The app will need to be downloaded to your smart phone or tablet from iTunes App Store or Google Play.  Information is available on http://www.nhs.uk/using-the-nhs/nhs-services/the-nhs-app.

As from 1^st July 2019 the practice can offer a limited amount of pre-bookable nursing, GP and nurse practitioner appointments on a Saturday morning to Clifton House Medical Centre patients.

The appointments will be available at Sydenham House Group Practice, Elliott Chappell Health Centre, Hessle Road, HU3 4BB.  The Clinician that you see will not be from Clifton House Medical Centre but will have access to your medical records.
