Pharmacy Team

The pharmacy team in GP practices plays a crucial role in managing medication-related services and supporting patient care. It typically includes clinical pharmacists and pharmacy technicians. Clinical pharmacists provide expert advice on prescribing, conduct medication reviews, and support patients with chronic conditions to manage their treatments effectively. Pharmacy technicians assist with administrative tasks related to prescriptions, ensure medication safety, and help streamline processes like repeat prescriptions. By working closely with GPs and the wider multidisciplinary team, the pharmacy team improves medication management, enhances patient safety, and contributes to the overall efficiency of the practice.

Reception Team

Receptionists provide an important link for patients with the practice and are your initial contact point for general enquiries. They can provide basic information on services and results and direct you to the right person depending on your health issue or query. Receptionists make most of the patient appointments with the GPs and nurses. They also perform other important tasks such as issuing repeat prescriptions and dealing with prescription enquiries, dealing with financial claims, dealing with patient records and carrying out searches and practice audits.

A multidisciplinary team (MDT) in a healthcare setting brings together professionals from various disciplines to provide holistic and patient-centered care. In GP practices, an MDT may include GPs, nurses, healthcare assistants, pharmacists, physiotherapists, mental health practitioners, social workers, and administrative staff. Each team member contributes their unique expertise to assess, plan, and manage patient care collaboratively. This approach ensures that patients receive comprehensive support for complex or multifaceted health needs, improving outcomes and enhancing the efficiency of care delivery.
