Chance to commenton local pharmacyservices in Sussex

East Sussex Health and Wellbeing Board is asking people to answer a short series of questions to provide a ‘snapshot’ of people’s views on pharmacy services on offer across the county.

The results of the questionnaire will help inform the decisions made by the local authority and the NHS about the services needed to meet the health and social care needs of people in the county.

Board chairman Keith Glazier said: “In recent years, pharmacies have been taking an increasingly important role in helping people to stay healthy.

“Pharmacists do far more than just dispense medicines, offering advice and support in areas such as sexual health and quitting smoking.

“It’s important in planning for the future that we establish whether people feel they have access to the services they need, when and where they need them.”

The survey, which runs until Friday, November 29 can be completed online at www.eastsussex.gov.uk/haveyoursay.
