Blood Results Management

Review and provide advice to patients and clinical staff on abnormal blood results, such as HbA1c, lipids, thyroid function, renal function, and other relevant blood tests, in line with the post holder's scope of practice and competence.

Repeat and acute prescription processing

Support implementation and ongoing development of repeat prescribing systems and processes.

Manage the repeat prescribing reauthorisation process by reviewing patient requests for repeat prescriptions and reviewing medicines reaching review dates and flagging up those needing a review.

Ensure patients have appropriate monitoring tests in place when required.

Process acute prescription requests in line with practice protocol.

Management of minor and common ailments

Where competent to do so, assess and manage patients presenting with minor or self-limiting ailments, signposting or referring appropriately, to help release GP appointment capacity for patients with more complex needs.

Digital tools, documentation and safety-netting

Use practice clinical systems and associated digital tools (e.g. SystmOne, Ardens, AccuRx) and other approved digital tools to record accurate and timely clinical documentation, ensure appropriate safety-netting and follow-up plans are in place, and triage to identify opportunities for proactive medicines optimisation.
