Improvement action plan
Pharmacy context
This is a community pharmacy located on a busy main road in the centre of Melton Mowbray. It is open extended hours Monday to Saturday and most of its activity is dispensing NHS prescriptions. It also provides a prescription delivery service, the NHS Pharmacy First service, and it supplies medicines in multi‐compartment compliance packs to some people.
This was an intelligence-led inspection of the pharmacy following information received by the GPhC. The pharmacy was last inspected in June 2025 and not all standards were met, resulting in an action plan. There was some overlap between the issues found during this intelligence-led inspection and the previous inspection. This inspection focused on the matters raised with the GPhC and did not look at all the Standards.

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.
