System too complicated for ordering prescriptions

The appointment booking system appears unnecessarily complicated and difficult for older patients to navigate, and those responsible for maintaining records do not seem to be fulfilling their responsibilities adequately. Additionally, medications prescribed for a respiratory infection failed to reach the designated pharmacy as planned. This issue became apparent on a Friday, resulting in a delay of several days before the medication could be obtained on the following Tuesday. When I eventually accessed my medical records through the online portal, I noticed that a key medication for managing my blood pressure was absent from the list, despite having attended a specific appointment approximately five weeks prior for blood pressure monitoring and assessment. As a result, I am now unable to request this medication through the usual channels. Given that the pharmacy service no longer manages patient requests directly and reception staff appear uncertain about the appropriate procedure, it seems that the overall standard of patient care has become disorganised and poorly coordinated. The use of discouraging messages in automated communications to discourage feedback from dissatisfied patients is unhelpful and unconvincing.
