Been to hospital or planning to go?

At Pharmacy 777 we understand that your health care journey continues after you leave hospital.

About this service.

Your health journey doesn’t stop once you leave the hospital. Adjusting to home life once you’ve been discharged takes time. Ensuring you have access to support at home is key to transitioning your care. 

You may be taking new medications or experiencing pain or discomfort since leaving hospital. As medication specialists, 777 Pharmacists can help you understand what medications you are taking and why, and ensure you have the best plan in place to manage your medications and support you.

Our Out of Hospital Support service consultation takes just 20 minutes. During this appointment your 777 Pharmacist will find out why you went into hospital, what your GP or Specialist’s post-hospital treatment plan is and how you are tracking since being discharged. Your 777 Pharmacist also works with you to review your current medications, discuss pain management support, provide advice and recommendations, and connect with your health care team to support your ongoing recovery. We can also support you at home with services such as home delivery.

*Express Delivery is available at all locations except Quality Pharmacy 777 Heaths Road, Bellpost, Mitcham and Burwood East.

What to expect?

In the initial 20 minute consultation, the Pharmacist will go through your Specialist or GP’s treatment plan, which may include reviewing your Hospital Discharge Summary, reviewing all prescriptions, documenting upcoming appointments and talking through how you are tracking since leaving hospital. 

The Pharmacist’s primary role is to review your medications and ensure a plan is in place for your medication management.
Supporting you in your complete health care journey, your Pharmacist may connect with your GP or Specialist, and other health care providers, to deliver improved health outcomes.

After your initial consultation, the Pharmacist will schedule additional follow-up appointments to track your progress and support you. This can be done with you or your carer by phone or in the pharmacy, so you can continue to ask questions and feel supported with your medicine management.
