Inspection outcome: Standards met
Last inspection: 17/07/2019
Pharmacy context
The ‘hub’ pharmacy is located in a separate building above the main pharmacy. People cannot visit the pharmacy in person. The hub is used by the main pharmacy to assemble, check and store multi-compartment compliance aids to help people take their medicines at the right time. It usually operates one hour per day when the main pharmacy is closed for lunch.
Inspection summary findings
Principle 1. Governance
The pharmacy adequately manages risks to make sure its service is safe. Members of the pharmacy team work to professional standards but some have not confirmed their understanding of the procedure, so may be unclear of their roles and responsibilities and who is accountable for what. The team members keep people's private information safe. And they complete training so they know how to protect children and vulnerable adults.
Principle 2. Staff
The pharmacy has enough qualified staff to provide the service safely and the pharmacy team has opportunities to discuss issues informally.
Principle 3. Premises
The premises are suitable for the service provided.
Principle 4. Services, including medicines management
The pharmacy provides a service for the main pharmacy which is well managed. And it carries out some checks to ensure medicines are in good condition and suitable to supply.
Principle 5. Equipment and facilities
The pharmacy has the equipment it needs to provide the service safely.
