| 4.3 | The pharmacy cannot show that it regularly date checks its stock. The pharmacy has a date-checking matrix but the last entry made was in April 2023 and two out-of-date medicines were found in stock. This could increase the chance of an expired medicine being dispensed. |
We have now a pharmacy date-checking |

| 4.3 | The pharmacy cannot demonstrate that it stores medicines requiring cold storage appropriately. Minimum and maximum temperature readings seen during the inspection were outside the required range. And the pharmacy does not record fridge temperatures daily. So, this makes it more difficult for the pharmacy to show that the medicines inside are safe to use. |
I have been recording the minimum and maximum temperature from 13/06/2025 and they are within the required range. I enclose the copy of chart. I have a new fridge |
