She says she had waited at the counter for quite a while whilst the staff finished their conversation and when she was given her medication without comment and overheard staff remark 'Rude' as she left.
I am quite shocked to hear this as I have always found the staff there helpful and polite..
Whilst I appreciate that Pharmacy Assistants sometimes have a hard time I would suggest a more welcoming attitude is in order.
We're asked to be polite and patient while waiting, only for our medication to be all but thrown at us, or scripts ripped away.
Staff standing around talking while customers are waiting.
And, at the current moment, telling exempt people that, despite being exempt, they have to wear a mask. I understand the current situations of the world, but if people can't wear a mask no one has the right to refuse them access to their medication.
Absolute joke, honestly!
Asking Could I have tablets too tide me over until Monday because shepherds mountain ash was closed on Saturday and my script was in that shop. (I was unaware it was closed on Saturday's)
Lady at shepherds aberdare answered the phone said no I'd have to ring 101 very rudly.
I thought mmm, I'll ring aberaman and the lady totally lovely and said "yes ofcourse I'll need half hour we are flat out."
Probably flat out with the customers the other lady is turning away!!!
Ps: the lady in aberdare needs customer service coaching as she works in a customer service roll!!
Best place to go if your giving up smoking they have helped me big time iv gone from smoking 30 or more a day to 2 in morning.
Big thank you to the staff they worked very hard when covid was in lock down never went with my prescriptions.
