Pharmacy context
This community pharmacy is located on the main High Street in Old Hill, West Midlands. The pharmacy dispenses NHS prescriptions, private prescriptions and sells over-the-counter medicines. It also provides a range of services including seasonal flu vaccinations, blood pressure testing and a local minor ailments scheme.
This was a reinspection following an inspection in August 2025 where the pharmacy did not meet Standards 1.1, 1.6 and 4.2. This reinspection focused on those Standards which had previously not been met. Since the last inspection, the pharmacy has provided evidence of written procedures and risk assessments for its services. It has also made some improvements to its record keeping; however, it must ensure that records are consistently well maintained.
