Pharmacy context
This community pharmacy is located in the small village of Desford. Its main activity is
dispensing NHS prescriptions, some of which it delivers to people's homes. It also sells
medicines over the counter and offers the NHS Pharmacy First service, Hypertension
case‐finding service and contraception service. It provides seasonal flu vaccinations and
Covid‐19 vaccinations and supplies medicines in multi‐compartment compliance packs to
people who need this support to help them take their medicines at the right time.
This was a desktop reinspection following an inspection in August 2025 where the pharmacy did not meet Standard 2.2. This reinspection focused on the Standard which had previously not been met. The pharmacy previously had some team members who were working in the dispensary and who were not registered on the required training courses. They have since been enrolled on appropriate training courses.
