A Community Network for Bowes Park and Bounds Green
On Monday 4th February, NHS England launched a new campaign to raise awareness that community pharmacists are qualified healthcare professionals, who can offer clinical advice and over the counter medicines to effectively and safely manage a range of minor health concerns, such as coughs, colds, sore throats, tummy troubles, aches and pains and many more.
As part of the ‘Help Us, Help You’ initiative, the campaign will highlight that local pharmacy teams offer a fast and convenient clinical service for minor health concerns with no appointment needed and use of a private consultation room should it be required.
If symptoms suggest it’s something more serious, pharmacists have the right clinical training to ensure people get the help they need immediately and can refer patients to a GP or A&E where necessary.
Don’t wait for minor health concerns to get worse – speak to your local pharmacy team to get advice right there and then.
Help us, help you, before it gets worse. Visit www.nhs.uk/pharmacyadvice for more information.
