@SP_EnergyPeople I am abroad & I am not able to reschedule my smart meter appointment via the ‘manage my booking feature’ - can you please advise how I can cancel & reschedule my another means? Thank you!

#Pharmacist #ACPs - desperately seeking some advice/recommendations on #indemnity #insurance options please! 🙏‘Traditional’ Pharmacist PI providers can get pricey with bolt-ons for additional skills & NMP! 🤑 @PharmacistACPs @NHSHEE_NWest @rpharms @hirmie1_ubhi @AJaiswal108

UPDATE: emailed @TheGPhC - they say it is not their remit to advise on professional indemnity insurance & each person would need to discuss individually with their PI providers 🤷🏻‍♀️

I now bring two glasses of water up to bed. One for me, and one to sit on the edge of the radiator. For my cat. Who sits there, waiting for it. #catlady #cats #CatsOfTwitter #AdoptDontShop

Blister packs do not prevent non-concordance! 💊 Shared decision making 💊 Effective medicines counselling 💊 Recognising problematic polypharmacy 💊 Deprescribing 💊 Follow up/monitoring
Replying to @deprescribing
Don’t disagree with takes here. Most of my patients are elderly, frail, overwhelmed. Hard to know if reasonable for them to be informed about their meds without help. Medication charts would be useful. Important to acknowledge that blister packs do not prevent noncompliance.

Reminder that #shareddecisionmaking is important - received this in my repeat Rx from my #GP - no explanation for switch, no choice, no concordance counselling & no offer of NMS from #communitypharmacy #nodecisionaboutmewithoutme @NHSEngland @NHSNW

Catherine Poole - My Hero 💙 #nhs #protectthenhs @NHSuk
"It's a pity you don't pay [NHS staff] more... you need to try harder" On a visit to Croydon University Hospital, patient Catherine Poole, 77, tells Prime Minister Rishi Sunak "you need to look after [the NHS]" bbc.in/3Dck0bk
So much life happens behind those yellow doors 💛 Hasn’t always been plain sailing, but - my word - I’m proud of everything we’ve achieved!! @atomicallyblond @FelicityLewisPT @sophielane_ @BETHCARLING @HannahGals @AlexGomezQ Goodbye @WHHNHS! #frailty #mdt #sdec #homefirst

Simply put, this is dangerous & life-threatening rhetoric. Do not share ANY prescription medications, including antibiotics. #AntibioticResistance is a real & global problem, & it’s happening now. Just No. @NHS_HealthEdEng @NHSEngland @gmcuk @TheGPhC @rpharms @theresecoffey

Stop dipping the urine in older patients; “bilateral lower leg cellulitis” (almost always) isn’t; PR examination has higher yield than CT head in delirium; why the hell are you putting elderly patients on amitriptyline, check the Mg2+, & CPR is not a treatment for ordinary dying.
🎙️Calling all @PharmacistACPs 🎙️ It’s that time again for @TheGPhC renewal, but first year as qualified #acp Who do you have #professionalindemnity #insurance with please?? @rpharms @NHSHEE_NWest @NHS_HealthEdEng #pharmacistacps #indemnityinsurance @AcpMmu @RPSGM

Calling all Pharmacy professional friends… 🎤 Can a IP instruct another HCP to give an unlicensed preparation/drug via a PSD? Can’t seem to find a clear answer on Google! 🔍 Thanks! #pharmtwitter @TheGPhC @RPSGM #pharmacylaw #pharmacists @noosh265 @mokx891 @vicks_vapor
