| Standard not met | Reason | Action being taken by the Pharmacy | By when | Notification By Pharmacy Improvements Made |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3.1 | The pharmacy does not have enough clear workspace to be able to provide the services safely. And there is excessive clutter throughout the pharmacy. This could increase the risks of errors occurring. The fire exit is blocked and there are significant tripping hazards. |
We will clear all the folders and unnecessary documents from the dispensary so as to provide a larger workspace for dispensing. Remove any obstacle at the fire exit and instruct building constructor to put an extra seal so that water will not come through. |

| 4.3 | The pharmacy does not store medicines which need cold storage properly and the room temperature is above the recommended range. This makes it more difficult for the pharmacy to show that the medicines are safe to use. The pharmacy does not always keep medicines in containers which are properly labelled. This may increase the risk that date checks or product recalls are not effective. |
Install the mobile air-conditioner by qualified electrician and especially in the summer season dispensing should monitor the room temperature to ensure the average temperature is below 25 degree Celsius. I will highlight this point to all dispensing staffs and make sure from now on this policy will be strictly enforced. |
