Last week on Friday we met with MSP Christine Grahame at Lauder Pharmacy, in the Borders. hosted by prescribing pharmacists, Hilary Evans and Cathy Scaife.
We had a very engaging conversation with Christine mainly focusing on NHS Pharmacy First and Pharmacy First Plus. Detail included talking about how the funding works, read / write access to patient records, and how patients access the service.
