Pharmacy context
This is a community pharmacy located in a parade of shops in a residential area. In addition to providing NHS dispensing services, the pharmacy provides the Hypertension Case Finding Service, the Pharmacy First service, the contraception service, the supervised consumption service, the New Medicines Service and the Community Pharmacy Consultation Service. It supplies medicines in multi-compartment compliance packs to a number of people to help them take their medicines safely and delivers medicines to some patients. The pharmacy also provides a private travel and weight loss clinic via Patient Group Directions (PGDs). This was a reinspection following an inspection in November 2025 where the pharmacy did not meet Standard 1.6. This reinspection focused on the Standard which had previously not been met. The pharmacy now records the dates on which patient’s weights are measured as part of the weight loss service. It also carries out audits of certain medicines requiring secure storage, maintains an accurate responsible pharmacist record, and records all the required information when dispensing unlicensed medicines.

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.
