An INCORRECT post is currently circulating on Facebook that says all COPD and Asthma patients can get a ‘Rescue Pack’ from their GP surgery containing a short supply of Steroids and Antibiotics.
THIS INFORMATION IS NOT CORRECT and is causing a high volume of calls to the surgery at an already incredibly busy time.
‘Rescue Packs’ are available for SOME COPD patients ONLY and these patients will already have their supply in place organised by their GP previously.
