Global Microsoft Outage - service update

The ongoing global Microsoft outage continues to affect email and some communication systems across our services and other NHS organisations.

Our services continue to operate during their usual opening hours, with business continuity plans in place. We are monitoring the situation closely. You may experience longer waits when contacting us. Thank you for your patience.

Please continue to attend planned appointments unless we contact you to advise otherwise. During usual opening hours, contact your service by telephone or through its app. Please do not contact us by email while the disruption continues.

If you need urgent medical help when your service is closed, use NHS 111 online or call 111. In a life-threatening emergency, call 999.

Please note: we do not accept telephone requests for repeat medication.

How long will this take?

It will take us 7 working days to process your request, so please request in plenty of time. The pharmacy usually also require a few days to process it after we approve it.

If it is difficult for you to get to a pharmacy to collect your prescription, some pharmacies will deliver to housebound patients but this will need to be discussed with the pharmacy themselves.

We cannot agree this for you as the pharmacies are not part of the surgery.

Other important information

At times your doctor will wish to review your treatment and they may ask for you to book a medication review. This is normally completed over the telephone with our in-house pharmacist and should be yearly. Some medications may need more monitoring and you may be asked to book a review sooner than a year.
