Inaccurate information circulating regarding special ‘rescue packs’ for patients with pre-existing respiratory conditions

• We have been made aware of some inaccurate information circulating regarding special ‘rescue packs’ for patients with pre-existing respiratory conditions such as asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
• Please do not contact the practice for a rescue pack. You should continue to manage your condition in the usual way and if you feel you have symptoms of COVID-19, visit NHS Direct to check your symptoms before doing anything else.
• For patients with pre-existing respiratory conditions such as asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

The surgery will NOT be providing exemption letters for the wearing of face coverings.  Please follow the guidance set out on the government website: https://gov.wales/face-coverings-guidance-public
