Electronic Prescribing in the Community SOP (S77)
The purpose of this Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) is to outline the steps required for community prescribers to utilise the Electronic Prescription Service (EPS – also known as ETP2). EPS enables community prescribers to transfer prescriptions electronically to the patient’s nominated pharmacy via the Spine which can then be collected without the need for a paper prescription.

Cardiac Rehab Service SOP (S109)
This SOP was drawn up to confirm and clarify the operating procedure for the community cardiac rehabilitation service (CR) This document sets out the standards which, in the view of the patient and professional organisations involved, are required of services to deliver a high-quality community cardiac rehabilitation service for people with cardiovascular disease (CVD) Cardiac rehabilitation is a comprehensive secondary prevention programme of exercise and education aimed at people who have had a cardiac event, cardiac surgery, and heart failure. Research has demonstrated that it helps reduce mortality and morbidity “The evidence base that supports the merits of comprehensive CR is robust and consistently demonstrates a favourable impact on cardiovascular mortality and hospital re-admissions in patients with coronary heart disease” (Anderson et al 2016). The community cardiac rehabilitation service was developed in response to a growing need for more cardiac rehabilitation programmes for a wider range of cardiac conditions which were unable to be accommodated in the acute hospital programmes and to offer a menu of options for delivery of programmes closer to the patient’s own home.
