CARERS
Do You Look After Someone?
A carer is someone who, without payment, provides help and support to a partner, child, relative, friend or neighjbour, who could not manage without their help. The vast majority of carers struggle on alone and are not aware there is help available.
Please contact Fife Carers Centre on 01592 642999, or pick up a leaflet from reception.
Online Prescription Service
We are pleased to be able to offer an online prescription service as part of the website. This service is only available to those who register. Please click here for more information about registering for this service, or ask at the reception desk.
We hope this will make it easier for some patients to order their prescriptions. Please note we can only accept requests to register by patients themselves.
