Offering many services other than retail and dispensing, one of these is the facility of filling your repeat prescription at other Unicares in Jetland Shopping Centre or Grove Island.
“If you need your repeat prescription on a Sunday, you can go to Jetland’s Unicare from 11am to 5pm,” says Linda O’Brien, manager at William Street. “Jetland’s branch opens late, too, on a Thursday and Friday until 9pm. The Grove Island branch opens Monday to Saturday on a 9am to 7pm basis, later than city pharmacies”.
Unicare Pharmacy can also deliver your prescription and dispense the experienced advice of a pharmacist on your medicine and medical profile.

Top that with a free hearing test and consultation with Lennox, an independent hearing aid company working in partnership with Unicare Pharmacy.
“Make an appointment with us for a test by a fully trained professional, free of charge with the consultation to buy a hearing aid,” invites Linda. “We also stock Trulife living aids for people affected by sports injury or disability, items such as wrist and ankle supports, grab rails and handheld grabs to reach for items”.
Avail of information available on support grants for the elderly or infirm from pharmacy staff.
“Unicare also stocks the skincare ranges La Roche Posay and Vichy which are great for skin conditions such as dry, cracked skin, psoriasis, eczema and dermatitis. They are ideal for sensitive baby’s skin as much as adults, and there is a suncare range too. We have free samples for people who want to sample La Roche Posay’s AntiHelios sun range for example which offers excellent SPF protection. It’s recommended by dermatologists”.
