What is Careway Patient Access for Professionals?
It’s an app that connects patients to local health services when they need them most. Patients can book GP appointments, order repeat prescriptions and discover local health services for themselves or their family via their mobile or home computer. Pharmacies and other health providers can advertise their services and allow patients to book directly with the pharmacy
Benefits
