Pharmacy context
This pharmacy is located in a medical centre. It dispenses NHS and private prescriptions. And it sells medicines over the counter. The pharmacy offers some NHS services such as Pharmacy First. And it offers some private services, such as weight loss and travel vaccinations via patient group directions (PGDs). The pharmacy supplies medicines to some people in multi-compartment compliance packs. And it offers a prescription delivery service.
This was a reinspection following an inspection in April 2025 where the pharmacy did not meet Standards 1.1 and 4.3. This reinspection focused on those standards which had previously not been met. Since the last inspection, the pharmacy has updated its standard operating procedures (SOPs) and team members have read the SOPs relevant to their roles. The pharmacy now records it’s fridge temperatures daily to ensure medicines requiring cold-storage are kept at the required temperatures.
