Merger update - our systems are finally merged!

We are starting to return back to a normal service. We had over 115 prescription requests which we have processed. However there were a few on the prescription line that we could not make out.

Remember - if you were a repeat dispensing patient, your medication may not be at your pharmacy and may need to be re-requested when due.

We will communicate an NHS app update hopefully early next week on how patients can regain access to that service.

Massive thank you to all who have shown patience during this time.

▪️Why should I book an appointment for cervical screening?▪️
Cervical screening is one of the best ways to protect yourself from cervical cancer.

▪️How does cervical screening prevent cancer?▪️
Cervical screening checks a sample of cells from your cervix for certain types of human papillomavirus (HPV).
These types of HPV can cause abnormal changes to the cells in your cervix and are called "high risk" types of HPV.
If high risk types of HPV are found during screening, the sample of cells is also checked for abnormal cell changes.
If abnormal cells are found, they can be treated so they do not get a chance to turn into cervical cancer.
