EPS rolls out for Detained Estate prescribers

From September 2024, NHS England has announced that the Electronic Prescription Service (EPS) will be extended to health services in prisons. This will enable prescribers in prisons to issue electronic ‘To Take Out’ (TTO) and urgent prescriptions to community pharmacies, eliminating the need for paper FP10 forms. Most people released from prison will have their current medications, so they may not need to collect their EPS prescription immediately.  See here for further details.
