We are reminded that over 90% of Pharmacists can now offer treatment for more conditions, indeed, community pharmacies can now offer treatment for the following conditions without the need to make a GP appointment (NHS):
- Earache (for sufferers aged 1 to 17 years)
- Impetigo (sufferers aged 1 year and over)
- Infected insect bites (aged 1 year and over)
- Shingles (aged 18 years and over)
- Sinusitis (aged 12 years and over)
- Sore throat (aged 5 years and over)
- Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs - women aged 16-64 years)
Regarding the local NHS survey, I've only just discovered that we have until Sunday the 10th of March, that is this Sunday, to complete an NHS Sussex survey. Everyone living in Sussex is asked to contribute with their experiences of health and social care, go to the website to participate, apologies for my late sharing.
