Pharmacy context
This is a community pharmacy in a parade of shops on a main road. It dispenses NHS prescriptions and supplies medicines in multi-compartment compliance packs to a number of people to help them take their medicines safely and delivers medicines to some patients. It also provides travel vaccinations, the Pharmacy First service, the New Medicines Service, smoking cessation service and the minor ailments service.
This was a full routine inspection of the pharmacy. The pharmacy was last inspected in December 2020 and all standards were met.

What do the inspection outcomes mean?
After an inspection each pharmacy receives one overall outcome. This will be either Standards met or Standards not all met
| The pharmacy has met all the standards for registered pharmacies | |
| The pharmacy has not met one or more of the standards for registered pharmacies |
What does 'pharmacy has not met all standards' mean?
When a pharmacy has not met all standards, they are required to complete an improvement action plan, which you can find via a link at the top left of this page. We monitor progress to check the improvements are made and inspect again after six months to make sure the pharmacy is maintaining these improvements. A new report will then be published.
