Naloxone

NHS National Services Scotland did not have the information requested.

Dear NHS National Services Scotland, Can you confirm that NHS Scotland decides which leaflets go into selected high street pharmacists ?

Has there ever been an initiative to provide leaflets on the function of Naloxone and administration training centres in pharmacists in Scotland ?

Yours faithfully,

Peter Mcdade

Dear Peter,

 

Re Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002 Request I refer to your
request of 14th December under the above legislation for information about
the provision of leaflets by the NHS to pharmacies.

 

I am writing to advise you that following a search of our paper and
electronic records, I have established that under Section 17 of the
Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002,  Information Services Division
or Health Protection Scotland do not hold the information you requested.

 

There are a series of public health message campaigns conducted within
community pharmacies as part of the Scottish Community Pharmacy contract
but I believe that these are determined by Scottish Government. It is also
possible that NHS Health Scotland ([1]http://www.healthscotland.com/) may
be involved in co-ordination of this activity but I am unable to confirm.

 

If you are unhappy with any aspect of how we have dealt with your request
you can make representations to us asking us to review the handling of
your request.  Please write to the Associate Director of Corporate Affairs
and Identity, NHS National Services Scotland, Headquarters, Gyle Square, 1
South Gyle Crescent, Edinburgh EH12 9EB within 40 working days of the date
