WHAT IS Chain SMS...
Chain SMS is a system which allows us to easily send text messages to patients. It means we can be much more proactive about some communications, messaging you quickly and securely, so you are not waiting around to hear from us!
Some examples of how we might use it...
- Reminders or notifications (e.g. prescriptions ready)
- Responding to simple queries (e.g. If you had a quick question about our medication)
- Letting you know we tried to call
- Sending you advice at the end of the consultation
The practice name will also be at the bottom of the message. You wont be able to reply to the messages. Please help us help you by keeping your number up to date. If you don't want us to contact you in this way please let us know.
