Richmondshire GP Network Practice Questionnaire
Thanks for clicking the link. Following the meeting on 24/4/19 it was clear that we need more information on pharmacists and extended hours provision in the network so I've made this questionnaire to gather the info. It shouldn't take long!
We at Scorton Medical Centre are too tight to pay for our website so we only get 5 questions per questionnaire, hence there's two and you need to submit both individually, sorry!

Pharmacists
The number of additional pharmacist hours each practice is entitled to (and that the network is required to provide) is given below. The pharmacists should be working at least 0.5 WTE - We've chosen to interpret this as meaning in total and not just their hours for the network. They must also be prescribers or working towards becoming one.
Additional Hours per Practice:
Additional Hours per Practice:
- Aldbrough St John: 2.75
- Catterick Village: 5.5
- Central Dales: 3.5
- Friary: 4.75
- Harewood: 6.25
- Leyburn: 5
- Quakers Lane: 5.25
- Reeth: 1.25
- Scorton: 3
Extended Hours
For the avoidance of doubt (there was a lot of doubt at the meeting!), this is separate from Better Access and Open for Longer. Most practices call it Evening Surgeries.
The information practices sent me prior to the meeting showed we're doing about 23.75hrs across the patch and we only need to be providing 22.5, so that's good but not very resilient. Plenty of people at the meeting didn't realise that Nurse, HCA, Pharmacist, Physio and other allied professional time counts towards their total so I thought I would just check what everyone is doing again.
