Question: How can I receive prescription medications for the person I care if I am self isolating?

Answer passage (source: UK):
page_title: Guidance Coronavirus (COVID-19): providing unpaid care to adults with learning disabilities and autistic adults
section_headers: Protecting yourself and the person you care for
Collecting prescriptions if you are self-isolating
section_content: If you normally collect prescriptions for the person you care for, you will
not be able to do this if you are self-isolating. Most pharmacies provide a
home delivery service. Telephone them to see if this is available or if there
is another scheme running locally to help you access prescriptions.
Pharmacy delivery services will be under pressure at the moment, so it is
important that you order your repeat prescriptions in good time, to avoid
delays in dispensing. Information on repeat prescriptions and delivery
services may also be available via your GP practice website.

section_headers: While you are self-isolating, make sure you do the following things
If you or your family need to seek medical advice
section_content: Seek prompt medical attention if your illness or the illness of someone in
your household is worsening. If it’s not an emergency, contact the NHS 111
online coronavirus (COVID-19) service. If you have no
internet access, call NHS 111.
If it is a medical emergency and you need to call an ambulance, dial 999 and
inform the call handler or operator that you or your relative have coronavirus
(COVID-19) symptoms.
All routine medical and dental appointments should usually be cancelled while
you and the family are staying at home. If you are concerned or have been
asked to attend in person within the period you are home isolating, discuss
this with your medical contact first (for example, your GP or dentist, local
hospital or outpatient service), using the number they have provided.

Answer passage (source: UK):
page_title: Guidance Guidance for those who provide unpaid care to friends or family
section_headers: General advice
What you should be doing to prepare
section_content: Where you or the person you care for have no symptoms then please refer to the
guidance on hygiene on the NHS
website.
We advise all carers to create an emergency plan with the person they care
for, to use in circumstances where help from other people to deliver care may
be needed. Depending on the circumstances, this could be help from family or
friends, or a care provider.
In order to create an emergency plan that fits the needs of the person you
care for, you will need to set out:

the name and address and any other contact details of the person you look after
who you and the person you look after would like to be contacted in an emergency
details of any medication the person you look after is taking
details of any ongoing treatment they need
details of any medical appointments they need to keep

You should also ensure that it is in a format that can readily be shared with
other people who will need to discuss the plan with the person you care for.
Further information can be found at Carers
UK.
You may be able to arrange help and support from family and friends, but it
can be reassuring to have the involvement of your local authority or
healthcare provider in case informal
arrangements fall through. It may also be helpful to contact your local carers
support organisation who can help with contingency planning. You can find out
about local carer organisations at Carers UK.
You can also find information out about local services on the Carers Trust
website.
