Most certainly, I think we need to work with different professionals, within primary care – that is self-evident, and our pharmacy colleagues already dealing with minor illness, they were hugely with the vaccine immunisation for Covid, during that time.  We communicate with them by phone often, we’ve got a, we’re able to fire through prescriptions electronically, which – the patient doesn’t have to wait.  So using, using pharmacists has been great.  Nur-, nursing staff coming in and working with us has been a great boon, and they do things that we don’t do, and we do things that they don’t, obviously.  But we talk to each other and if you work in an environment where there is mutual respect, and mutual understanding of what individuals are doing within the organisation, then collectively that’s benefit for the patient.
