FAQs

Why is pre-exposure prophylaxis important?

It simplifies post-exposure treatment and provides a "safety window." Deltera’s patient portal provides clinical advice that patients can access even while they are abroad.

What is the schedule for Rabies vaccination?

The standard pre-exposure course involves three doses. Deltera’s integrated calendar and reminders ensure the patient returns for each dose at the correct clinical interval.

Does this PGD cover post-exposure treatment?

No. Post-exposure cases must be referred to specialist units. Deltera’s system helps identify these cases during pre-screening to ensure they are directed to the correct NHS care.

How do I track pharmacist training for Rabies?

Deltera’s head-office dashboard allows you to store and view all pharmacist training certificates, ensuring every branch is compliant and ready to offer the service.
