Committee Recommendations (1)
The Surrey Heartlands APC recommends the administration of depot antipsychotic injections under an AMBER shared care agreement for practices that have signed up to the agreed locally commissioned service (LCS).
The updated shared care agreement can be found in "Documentation"
Surrey Heartlands ICB has developed the LCS to enable stable patients with schizophrenia to be prescribed and administered these injections through their primary care prescriber (GP).
If a practice has not signed up to the LCS the drug remains as RED status and prescriptions will be issued by the provider.
