HOW
DO I....
OBTAIN
A REPEAT PRESCRIPTION?
Prescriptions
will be available 48 hours after your request, excluding weekends and bank/local
holidays.
All requests for repeat prescriptions must be made in writing or by submitting
the tear-off slip on your computerised prescription where you can tick whichever
medication you require. We regret that we cannot take requests over the telephone
or by fax, but we do online prescriptions (see below). Prescriptions can be posted if a stamped addressed envelope is enclosed.
The Everett Pharmacy in the Locks Heath Centre provides a collection service.
Please contact them directly for further information.

HOW
DO I....
OBTAIN 'FIT TO WORK' CERTIFICATES?
You do not need a
certificate for any illness lasting seven days or less. Your employer
may however require you to complete a self-certification form (SC2), which you
can obtain from your employer or the post office. Any illness lasting longer than
seven days will require a visit to your doctor for them to issue a 'fitness to work' certificate.
A charge will be made for certificates issued in the first seven days of an illness.
HOW
DO I....
SPEAK TO A DOCTOR/NURSE?
If you feel that your medical problem could be dealt with by a telephone consultation, all our doctors and nurses offer these daily. Just ring the normal surgery number and ask for one.
