Warm welcome on a cold morning from the Boots team at King's Lynn who shared impressive patient satisfaction survey results for their Pharmacy First service & an equally impressive patient safety record. Improved job satisfaction for staff an added bonus! #WAAW2024 David Webb

A welcome gift from Oxford University Hospitals, the University of Oxford and NIHR to round off #WAAW2024. There was no evidence that amoxicillin instead of co-amoxiclav for treatment of CAP was harmful. journalofinfection.com/article/S0163-…
