Welcome to Surrey Heartlands Appliance Prescription Management Service

Welcome to the Surrey Heartlands Appliance Prescription Management Service (SH APMS).  This is a new NHS service that is responsible for issuing prescriptions for stoma, catheter and/or transanal irrigation products for people living in the areas covered by the Surrey Heartlands Integrated Care Board. Stoma, catheter and/or transanal irrigation products include all products, accessories and associated additional products (for example, barrier spray, and adhesive remover).

The Surrey Heartlands Appliance Prescription Management Service has been set up to support and work alongside the care that people already receive from their local specialist teams. Having your stoma, catheter and/or transanal irrigation prescriptions provided by a centralised service, run by a team of specialist nurses, means that you will be able to access the right clinical support when you need to. Your prescriptions will be authorised by our specialist nurses, who will be able to ensure that you are ordering and using the best products for your particular needs.

If you feel that you need the advice and support of a nurse at your local hospital, you will still be able to access your current stoma/urology nurse.

Our service is supported by our friendly team of experienced service advisers who will contact you to order your prescriptions.
