Dispensing for Special Needs
In accordance with the Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) we aim to offer support to those who are in need. Where required we provide medication in easy to open bottles or bold lettering or in weekly or monthly medication packs. Residents in CareHomes receive their dispensing via our Monitored Dosage System which is designed to help Nurses and Carers manage medication.
Patient Medication Records
We hold records of every prescription and dispensing transactions. We also hold appropriate personal details of patients we dispense for. Consent is provided under contract with the CareHome or individually by the patient. All information held is for the exclusive use of CareHomePharmacy.com and is never made available to any third party
Waste Medicines
We operate a collection service of waste medicines from CareHomes. Patients in the community may also take unwanted medicines to one of our branches. All unwanted medication is disposed of in accordance with Waste Management Licensing Regulations and good practice guidelines. We will collect out of date or unwanted medication from the homes of those who are house bound.
Medicine Use Reviews (MUR)
We offer medication reviews to patients as required. CareHome residents receive reviews as part of our standard range of services. Patients in the community may visit one of our branches to receive a Medicines Use Review where our pharmacist will be pleased to help. This service is often referred to as MUR.
Repeat Dispensing
We operate the Repeat Dispensing programme used by many surgeries. Our systems allow us to hold each issue and release it on a timely basis. We communicate with surgeries when required about discontinued items or changes to therapy
Health Awareness & Self Care
Our pharmacists and staff are available to answer any questions on healthier lifestyles. We can recommend resources and guidance on how you can take care of your own health or that of your residents. We are also able to sell equipment and diagnostic kits to allow you to monitor your own health.

Under the RPSGB guidelines we are able to supply short term supplies for critical medicines in the event that you run out.
