Medpoint machine update. We are very pleased to announce that are Medpoint machine has been fixed and is now up and running again. 🥳🥳

01/09/2026

An update on our Medpoint machine. Unfortunately the engineer that visited this morning has broken the machine further. We are now in a waiting game as to when the part will arrive for the engineer to come back and fit the broken parts and fix the rest. Apologies again for the inconvenience.

Apologies again, but our Medpoint machine will be out of action until Tuesday. We have contacted the company and they have confirmed that there appears to be an issue with the scanner witching the machine, which is causing it to reboot and attempt scanning every prescription inside every 10-15mins preventing anyone from using it. We have confirmation from them that an engineer will be in attendance for this on Tuesday. Anyone who uses the machine will need to come into the pharmacy to collect their prescriptions. Apologies again for the inconvenience caused. As soon as the machine is back up and running I will update our page and all users will receive a text message with a collection code.

Apologies, but our Medpoint collection machine has had to be turned off again due to the heat. Following some of the “advice” offered during the last heatwave, when we also had to turn the machine off, I would like to take this opportunity to explain why this is necessary. The machine itself is constructed almost entirely from metal, which heats up and retains heat. Below is a photo of the inside of the machine for you all to see. There is a small fan that runs while the machine is switched on, but unfortunately, it is simply not powerful enough to cope with the temperatures we are currently experiencing. We also have an extractor fan running continuously to try to reduce the temperature in the room where the rear of the machine is positioned. Regarding the comments about air conditioning, we simply cannot have an air-conditioning unit in the small room where the machine is located. Unfortunately, it really is that simple. The machine is simply not designed to withstand the temperatures we have been experiencing this summer. We have already had to have the screen monitor replaced once this summer due to heat damage. We appreciate that having the machine switched off is inconvenient, but unfortunately, during periods of extreme heat this is necessary not only to protect the machine from further damage, but also to protect the integrity of the medication stored inside. The temperature inside the machine is currently 28.5°C, which is above the appropriate storage temperature for many medicines. We therefore cannot continue to store medication in the machine at this temperature and risk compromising its quality and stability. Patient safety must remain our priority. Thank you for understanding Louise
