Shared Care Delivery

Blood Disorders

Description

Providing treatment closer to home for patients with blood disorders – a number of people suffer from a condition where their body produces too many red blood cells or platelets. In the past, these patients would have had to attend Forth Valley Royal Hospital for blood tests and medication four times a year. Now patients get their blood tests carried out and pick up their prescription for medication at their local GP practice and only need to attend the hospital once a year to see their consultant.
