Welcome!  You are now on the NHS Lothian pages of the national website provided by the NHS to support Community Pharmacy.

 

On the left side of your screen you should see a list of links to sections covering different topics including up-to-date information regarding NHS Lothian-specific services and support – we hope you find this useful.  If you require a new Outlook email account (this used to be called NHSMail) and/or linking to a pharmacy’s shared mailbox, please see the NHS Email Accounts (Outlook 365) section for forms and guidance.  We also store our topical weekly update emails to all pharmacy shared mailboxes under the Weekly Updates section.
