Hypertension Digital App
Published: 21/06/21
Here at CPS we have been progressing the hypertension digital app and potential services with both DHI and Cohesion.
To make the project a success we have recruited a 250 pharmacies spread across the whole of Scotland.Each pharmacy that participates will have been supplied with a Bluetooth enabled blood pressure monitor to start recording readings. Cohesion has developed a process to codify individuals so that we are not recording identifiable information and comply with all GDPR requirements i.e. this stage of the project will be anonymous. We will also create dummy patient details so that the blood pressure readings are not attached to an identifiable person. This will allow us to test the pharmacy and patient facing interfaces of the app. Cohesion have also agreed to do the procuring and storage of the blood pressure monitoring devices in advance of starting in August.
Start Date: August 2021
We will be posting more information (i.e. webinar dates & video) as and when we have it.
Reporting to the Area Support Pharmacist, you will be responsible for and oversee the delivery of all aspects of the Scottish Pharmacy Contract and optimise the delivery of dispensing and professional services.
