Information

Clients between 13 and 25 years of age who present within 72 hours of unprotected sexual intercourse will be provided with emergency hormonal contraception (subject to clinical circumstances) free of charge. They will also be given advice on ongoing contraception and encouraged to make use of service providers including Calderdale Contraception and Sexual Health (CaSH) Services and GPs.

Additionally, females who present within 72 hours of unprotected sexual intercourse who are in receipt of an income based prescription exemption (income support, income-based job seekers allowance, named on a valid working families Tax Credit NHS exemption certificate or HC2 full help with health costs certificate) will be offered emergency hormonal contraception (subject to clinical circumstances) free of charge. They will also be given advice on ongoing contraception and encouraged to make use of service providers including Calderdale Contraception and Sexual Health (CaSH) Services and GPs.

A client may access the scheme at any of the participating pharmacies. They can use the pharmacy, CaSH service or their own GP and this remains a client choice. It must be noted that the service being available in a pharmacy is dependent there being a pharmacist on duty who is able to provide this service within the pharmacy. The EHC service may not be available for all of the pharmacies opening hours.

Clients excluded from the PGD criteria or service specification criteria will be referred by the pharmacy to another local service that will be able to assist them, as soon as possible, e.g. GP, community contraception service, or will be invited to purchase the Pharmacy medicine product if the exclusion from supply via the PGD is only due to an administrative matter, e.g. client not registered with a Calderdale GP, over 25 but not in receipt of an income-based prescription exemption.
