The way you order you repeat prescription has changed
Patients who have previously used the POD or an app to order their medications, should register for the NHS App www.nhs.uk/nhs-services/online-services/nhs-app
If you encounter any issues downloading and using the NHS app, please email Kmccg.dgsccg.pod@nhs.net for assistance.
As from June 2021 this will be the main way that prescriptions will be ordered. Patients without internet access can email the practice using our repeat prescription email address: redwood.prescriptions1@nhs.net
After your repeat request has been authorised by your GP, your prescription will be sent electronically to the pharmacy of your choice where your medicines will be dispensed as usual.
Please be aware that the Healthera app will no longer be affiliated with the local NHS POD service after 30/9/21. After this date you will no longer be able to use the Healthera app to order medication via the NHS POD service. Prescriptions may be ordered after 30/9/21 via the NHS App or by emailing the practice using the above prescription email address.
Medication Reviews
All repeat medications have to be reviewed according to the doctor's instructions. This could be annually or, with certain medications, at more frequent intervals. You will need to make an appointment to see your Doctor to have this review.
