🦟 Insect bite or sting? 🦟

Most insect bites and stings are mild and can be treated at home, for more information on what you can do, please refer to the image above.

💚 Think Pharmacy First 💚

Your local pharmacy is the perfect first stop for expert advice on insect bites and stings. Pharmacists can assess your symptoms, recommend effective treatments, and let you know if you need to be referred for further care.

⚠️ Important Update for Patients ⚠️

We are currently experiencing intermittent PC system issues which are affecting multiple sites. Unfortunately, this is outside of our control and may result in longer call waiting times and delays to some services.

To help us manage requests as efficiently as possible, we strongly encourage patients to use our new online triage system for all medical and administrative queries wherever possible.

Thank you for your patience and understanding while this issue is being resolved. We apologise for any inconvenience caused and appreciate your support.

Helping local patients breathe easier

Our Primary Care Network pharmacy team recently delivered a series of asthma education events followed by one to one appointments, helping local patients better understand and manage their asthma.

Across our 11 member GP practices, patients received:
💙 Interactive education sessions covering:
• Recognising the signs of poor asthma control
• Correct inhaler technique
• What to do during an asthma attack
• Practical advice for managing asthma day to day

💙 One to one appointments to ensure treatment was tailored and optimised for each individual.

The programme also provided valuable learning opportunities for 16 pharmacy students, who worked alongside our experienced team to gain hands-on clinical experience.

The results speak for themselves:
✅ 67 patients supported
✅ 88% improved their inhaler technique
✅ 41% switched to guideline-recommended therapy
✅ 38% switched to more environmentally friendly inhalers
⭐ Education events rated 9.5/10 on average by attendees

The feedback from patients was overwhelmingly positive, with many saying the sessions gave them knowledge and confidence they had never received before.

We are incredibly proud of what our pharmacy team has achieved and look forward to building on this success with more programmes that support the health and wellbeing of our local communities.
