Longton Health Centre currently uses the Electronic Prescribing Scheme - sending your prescription to the chemist electronically omitting the need to pick up from the surgery. You will still need to order your prescription in the usual way and wait the requested time. In order to activate this service you will need to make a nomination from your local pharmacy taking part in the scheme. A leaflet is provided on this service via the link below
Instead of needing a GP appointment certain Minor Ailments can be treated from your local pharmacy. If you do not pay for your prescriptions you will not need to pay for the item you recieve at the chemist either. A leaflet is provided on this service via the link below
