Pharmacy Homecare
The pharmacy homecare team organises deliveries of specialist medicines to more than 6,000 patients across the East of England: working alongside consultants, specialist nurses and administrative staff throughout the Trust.
Each month we process over 1000 prescriptions to be dispensed by one our 7 contracted homecare providers for multiple therapy areas such as rheumatology, gastroenterology, oncology, dermatology, neurology, paediatrics, respiratory and renal medicine. Medicines dispensed via the homecare service are delivered in a safe, secure and confidential manner by a third-party homecare provider. Processing includes a number of steps including, a clinical screen by a pharmacist, generation and then authorisation of the purchase order, and invoicing once the items are confirmed as having been delivered.
