What if I need to get a prescription

If you need to obtain a prescription or require a repeat prescription, you should use the NHS App where possible. The NHS App gives people who take regularly prescribed medication aquick, easy and convenient way to request their next batch of medicine.

You can send your request through the App at any time of the day or night. Requests via the NHS App or NHS Portal can be processed in just a few seconds as it is directly linked to your records and has no room for error. 

You are also able to request prescriptions by posting your repeat request slip through our prescriptions letterbox (below the window to the right of the main surgery doors) or we have a table in our reception area with prescription request forms.

Assistance with setting up the NHS App is available at Eastbourne library; an appointment will need to be booked for this.  Details are available here: IT for You - Eastbourne Library | East Sussex 1Space
