Think #PharmacyFirst!
Did you know your local pharmacy can now help with seven common conditions as part of the NHS Pharmacy First service? 💊
If clinically appropriate, pharmacists can supply NHS medicines for:
✔ Sinusitis
✔ Sore throat
✔ Ear infections (in children)
✔ Insect bites
✔ Impetigo
✔ Shingles
✔ Uncomplicated UTIs (in women)
This means quicker advice and treatment for you whilst reducing pressure on GP services. Your local community pharmacy can be your first point of contact for these minor conditions!

Pregnancy Self-Referral
If you’re pregnant, you can now self-refer directly to a midwife without needing to contact your GP or call the maternity hub.

The self-referral form is available 24/7, offering a quick and easy way to get started with your antenatal care.
To self-refer, please complete the form here.
Please Note:
- If you have changed your name or address and have not informed us, please update your details with us first before completing the form.
- You will need your NHS Number to make the self-referral.

Flu and Covid Vaccines
Following national guidelines, our flu and Covid vaccination programme will commence in October 2024. Children will be able to receive the vaccine earlier.
If you have a mobile phone, you will be sent a direct link to book your appointment. If you do not have a mobile phone, we will telephone you on your landline. If you do not have a landline or a mobile phone, you are most welcome to pop into the practice to book (please wait until after the 1st week of September).
You do not need to call the practice.

Hume Street Medical Centre Car Park
Hume Street Medical Centre car park provides free parking for patients attending appointments on-site or visiting the pharmacy only. You will have plenty of time for your appointment and/or to collect your prescription.
This has been introduced to prevent inappropriate use of our car park, such as for visiting Kidderminster Hospital. This was preventing genuine patients of the surgery from being able to park onsite to attend their appointments within the Hume Street Medical Centre.
