Pharmacy context

This community pharmacy is in the village of Auckley, on the outskirts of Doncaster in South Yorkshire. It dispenses NHS prescriptions and sells over-the-counter medicines. It also provides NHS consultation services including Pharmacy First, blood pressure checks, and the New Medicine Service (NMS). It also offers a private weight management service for people. The pharmacy supplies some medicines in multi-compartment compliance packs, designed to help people remember to take their medicines. And it offers a medicine delivery service.
This was a reinspection following an inspection in July 2025 where the pharmacy did not meet Standards 1.1, 1.2, 1.6. 3.1, 4.2, 4.3 and 5.1. This reinspection focused mostly on those Standards which had previously not been met. The pharmacy has improved against all these standards. It has reviewed its written procedures. And team members have completed the necessary learning to ensure they are safely and effectively following these. They take particular care to ensure they provide clear and accurate information to people receiving their medicines in multi-compartment compliance packs. And they engage in shared learning processes following mistakes made during the dispensing process to help reduce the risk of similar mistakes occurring. The pharmacy has replaced its dispensary floor to mitigate the risk of a team member tripping or falling. And it has obtained new equipment to ensure liquid medicines are measured accurately. The pharmacy has reviewed the way in which it makes and maintains the records required by law to ensure they are in order. Pharmacists have also improved the quality of information recorded during weight management consultations to show how they are providing this service safely. Pharmacy team members are conducting regular stock management tasks to support them in ensuring medicines are safe to supply to people.
