Provide Humber LPC with a secondary contact email address
Communication is really important to us here at Humber LPC and we would like our comms to reach you so that you don’t miss out on important messages/updates/training opportunities etc… As it is a Terms of Service requirement (see below) for contractors to use and check their pharmacy’s main shared mailbox regularly throughout the day, we use this email address to communicate all of our updates to you, and we also send you a Weekly Information Digest and a Quarterly Newsletter to this email address.
As well as the above, our updates also go onto our website and social media pages on Facebook and X.
It seems however that although we communicate via all these methods, some staff still seem to miss out on our comms/training opportunities, to try and combat this we would like to take a secondary contact email address for each pharmacy. This may be a management email address or an email for someone in the pharmacy who can circulate our communications to their team.
Please use the form below to provide us with a secondary contact email address for your pharmacy:
NHSmail – What is required?
It is a Terms of Service required that Pharmacy contractors MUST have a premises specific NHSmail account (with an email address using the following naming convention: ‘pharmacy.ODScode@nhs.net’), which their staff can access and can send and receive NHSmail from. There must also be at least two members of staff that have live personal NHSmail accounts that are linked to the premises specific NHSmail account.
Pharmacy contractors should ensure staff with personal NHSmail accounts linked to the shared mailbox keep their personal accounts active and staff should regularly check the shared mailbox throughout the opening hours of the pharmacy.
Where can I get more support on this?
Further guidance on how to access and use NHSmail in community pharmacies can be found on CPE’s NHSmail webpage.
