Safe and secure repeat dispensing
Our repeat prescription cabinet is designed and manufactured specifically for the secure storage of pharmacy repeat prescriptions.
The cabinet can be screwed to the floor, worktop or wall for secure storage of private patient information. High quality ball bearing double extending drawer runners ensure that the drawers fully open exposing the whole of the drawer area for easy access to repeat prescription information.
Both of the drawers have two compartments suitable for repeat prescription storage.
Cabinet size (overall sizes):
515mm H x 410mm W x 320mm D
Drawer size (overall sizes each drawer):
235mm H x 370mm W x 300mm D
Packs of prescription cabinet dividers are available at an additional cost.
The repeat prescription cabinets are finished in a high quality durable lead free polyester powder coated grey hammer finish. The cabinets are of robust construction manufactured from 1.5mm steel and incorporate a double entry 10 disc cam lock which locks both drawers with a single action.
"Two thirds of prescriptions generated in primary care are for patients needing repeat supplies of medicines they take regularly. These account for nearly 80% of the costs of all medicines in general practice." (Source, Department of Health)
Repeat dispensing is the process by which patients can obtain supplies of their repeat medicines over a defined period of time from a pharmacy of their choice, without the need to contact their GP practice on each occasion a new supply is needed.
Currently this service is only available from GP practices and Community Pharmacies that have been trained to provide the service.
