Palliative Medicine
This Pharmacy is a palliative care pharmacy.
Q. What is a palliative care pharmacy?
A. A palliative care pharmacy is a pharmacy contracted by NHS Mid Essex to stock specialist palliative care medication. The drugs available at a palliative care pharmacy do not cover all eventualities but any pharmacy can usually order supplies of a prescribed drug to be available for same or next day delivery.
Q. What do I do if my local palliative care pharmacy does not have the medication I need in stock?
A. If, for any reason, your pharmacy does not have the medication you need, they, or the healthcare professional involved in your care, will help you source the medication elsewhere.
Q. Can someone else pick up my prescription for me?
A. Yes. Prescriptions may be presented by the patient, their representative or a healthcare professional.
