Easier access to treatment for common ailments

Hywel Dda Health Board | Easier access to treatment for common ailments
A new scheme designed to provide easy access to advice and treatment for common ailments is to be introduced across Wales.
The national scheme which will involve assessment and supply of treatment will make community pharmacists the first port of call for ailments such as hay fever, warts, head lice, sore throats and indigestion.
Research shows that up to 40% of a GP’s time is taken up dealing with patients suffering from minor ailments. Under the new scheme, patients will be encouraged to consult a pharmacist, rather than their GP, for a defined list of ailments.
The pharmacists will then supply medication from an agreed list, give advice, or refer to the GP if necessary. Medicines will be given free of charge. This removes the payment barrier which can prevent patients choosing to see a pharmacist instead of their GP.
