Or I can go with a completely different company but have to spend extra dosh on a new system. Any thoughts on the best system out there from Locum and regular Pharmacist point of view? Other than LINK as I'm with Unichem.
Thanks
CegedimRx are now looking after Both Pharmacy Manager (PM) and Nexphase!
Ask cegedim for a demo disk of PM that you can install on your home computer and look around the help file (standard windows F1 thing). Try the sales department in Leyland. Come on to them with the "I'm a locum and want to get to grips with Pharmacy Manager before I do a month on the road" story. Have the disk sent to your home address and ask them if there is a quick reference guide. Usually they appreciate locums taking an interest as it reduces calls to their helpdesk!

You might find that most of the PMR suppliers are OK with installing the hardware and software as it is under their control. It's the N3 connections side of it all that is holding things up as commisioning those involves two other agencies - BT and CfH who have their own timescales. Anyway, I thought Wales were doing their own variation of EPS?
