Steroid Card Assets
How can I get a card?
Hard copies can now be obtained in England.
There are 3 ways of obtaining a hard copy of the card:
- Through community pharmacies: please let them know you have had the relevant patient education and are aware of sick day rules. You may wish to show a clinical letter or similar but that is not essential. If you lose your card the community pharmacy team can also provide a replacement.
- Your GP: when having your next routine review if they are the lead professional managing your steroid replacement care plan
- Hospital teams: at your next appointment
