3.1 | The pharmacy is disorganised. Clutter within the dispensary is impacting on the safe completion of dispensing tasks and is risking team members health and safety. |
The pharmacy has already had a thorough clean and shelves organised especially the creams section. We have plans in place to prevent this from occurring in future. |

4.3 | The pharmacy does not store and manage all its medicines as it should and in accordance with legal requirements. It does not make effective checks to ensure all medicines are safe to supply. And it does not store its medicine waste appropriately. |
CD Cabinet will be replaced. Medicines waste has been dealt with and disposed appropriately. Staff informed of importance of following SOP. Glass certified measures for antibiotics have again been ordered. The third fridge stock was removed immediately and put into monitored fridges. We have ordered a thermometer to measure and record third fridge temperatures daily. |
