Pharmacists!

Hiring locums during the year-end break?

Ensure they are well-versed in e-scripting regulations to avoid any misunderstandings, such as incorrectly advising patients that their EMGuidance Script prescriptions for Schedule 5 and Schedule 6 medicines must be emailed to the pharmacy as "transfer as original."

Help your locums stay informed:

• Direct them to our detailed resource on the legal requirements of digital prescriptions, which provides an in-depth understanding of the rules. They can earn 3 Ethical CPD points at the same time.
• Share the EMGuidance Script pharmacy support PDF, with them. This reminder poster for your pharmacy is a valuable teaching tool, featuring a section dedicated to addressing common misconceptions.

Stay compliant and ensure seamless operations this holiday season!
