Survey on Possible Prescription Changes

NHS England has set up a survey into possibly stopping prescriptions of some medicines which are already available to buy.

According to the NHS Clinical Commissioners there are many GP appointments every year for illnesses that patients can treat themselves and they are often prescribed drugs that can easily be picked up in pharmacies and supermarkets. It is thought if more patients were to do this, it would save the NHS considerable amounts of money.

The online survey has been co-designed by learning disability charity Change and is in an easy-read format.

CHANGE is also hosting focus groups for people with learning disabilities in Leeds on 26 February and London on 6 March , paying for travel costs on provision of a receipts/tickets.

When I moved to Sheffield nearly five years ago it was my "go to" organisation. I expect it to stay that way. All the staff and volunteers seem to pull out little gems of effort that disabled people like me couldn't do without. Professionally and personally - I love em :)

A fantastic presentation thought provoking and good questions from the floor around promoting this film/message to the general public not just professionals.

Disability Sheffield is a forward-thinking, energetic organisation doing a lot of positive work in Sheffield. I have no doubt they will continue to do so for a long time to come.
