This document must be signed by both the pharmacy & the service provider before any fees become applicable. Participation in the Supervised Administration & Prescription Support will be made available to all Sheffield pharmacy contractors who wish to be involved and who are willing to operate within the standards set for the scheme and agree to accept up to 8 patients on Prescription Support (of which up to 4 may be on Supervised Administration). Pharmacies may accept more than this number if they so wish. The suggested figures allow for patients to be allocated a collection Уtime slotФ so that the pharmacy generally only has to deal with one methadone patient per hour. It is felt that with the level of back up from the Service Provider this degree of activity should be within the capabilities of a majority of pharmacy contractors in Sheffield Participation in the full Injecting Support Scheme will not be compulsory, but a pharmacy within the methadone scheme will be asked to consider providing needle exchange facilities and, as a minimum, should agree to sell syringes, needles, condoms and sharps containers where requested. In addition they must have facilities to accept used sharps returned in small sharps containers - a suitable sharps container + a collection service is available via Sheffield Health. Pharmacies providing Supervised Administration & Prescription Support should, where possible, provide an area for medication to be consumed out of view of other members of the public. It is recognised that this objective is, to some extent, a long-term aim and will be dependent on grants being made available via the Modernisation Fund. Each pharmacy contractor who wishes to take part in the scheme should name the pharmacist responsible for providing the service and liaising with the Service Provider. It is desirable that the pharmacist nominated should be undertaking or have completed the CPPE distance learning package on substance misuse or a similar course. All pharmacies involved must operate a non-discrimination and equal access policy. The participating pharmacy must agree to complete and return the necessary paperwork (forms will be provided) in a timely manner in order to meet the deadlines set. These include: Pharmacy Registration to take part in the scheme Client Registration for new clients Recording of missed doses. Recording of number of current clients supervised, number of clients collecting and their prescriber, on a monthly basis (Recording Forms will be provided). Return of the above information to Associated Chemists (Wicker) Ltd by the 5th working day of the following month. The participating pharmacy must agree to contact the prescribing team by phone or fax in any of the following circumstances ( A suitable FaxForm will be provided): Following 3 sequential failures to collect medication. Evidence of increasing health, emotional or other problems Breach of the УcontractФ to which the service user has agreed Any other occasion when the pharmacist is concerned about the userТs well being. The participating pharmacy should make available information/ leaflets supplied via other agencies on drug abuse topics particularly covering harm reduction, availability of Needle Exchange and self help groups. Eventually it is hoped to develop a УNewsletterФ for use by the group. (Health Promotion) Where necessary, the participating pharmacy should refer clients to other suitable services that work with drug users. Advice and counselling will be provided to all users of the service (Health Promotion). Where a prescription calls for methadone to be consumed in the pharmacy, the prescribed quantity should be provided to the client in a properly labelled container, with the top removed prior to handing over. The client should drink this in front of the pharmacist. Water should be available for the client to drink if required. Any significant comments or observations should be noted and fed back to the prescriber where this is necessary. Any difficult incidents that may occur should be reported back to the Service Provider. The Service Provider will supply: A range of back up services to include Registration forms for clients Recording charts Pre-paid envelopes, УMethadone FilesФ A passport photo service Information on how to operate the system. Placement of clients with other pharmacies where their has been a breach of rules. е└Aд|.жазабУЩПЬ╨Э╨ёе└Aд|.жазабУЩПЬИЭИЕ╘hhhhhhhhh.....))#yzJ8 b н ┤ х % ├ 6┌LЛ▄ №·ў╤╤╤╤╤╤╤ллллл╤ллллЖ$ShШ■h 4 hЯ%ShШ■║  4h.%ShШ■h 4 hЯSSS Б┘Тъы 67Vh}Рк╘'()┌┌┌┌╪╪╪╪╪┌┌┌┌┌┌┌╒╪SS$ShШ■h 4 hЯTK @ё Normala $@$ Heading 1]c&@"& Heading 2xUБ]c$@2$ Heading 3xUБc">@т"Title>Ё]c0h■O▓hOutline (Not Indented)@KШ■h 4h.cd■O┬dOutline (Indented)@LШ■h 4h.c&■O╥& Table Text Mc^■Oт^ Number List@NШ■h 4h.c,■OЄ,First Line IndentO╨cZ■OZBullet 2@PШ■h 4 hvcZ■OZBullet 1@QШ■h 4 hЯc ■O" Body SingleRc ■O2 Default TextSc)F    )  ) gTimes New Roman Symbol &Arial&Arial BlackWingdingsMS Sans Serif"А╨╠УFа╠УFаГMartin Bennett
