Inspection outcome: Standards met

Last inspection: 16/02/2022

Pharmacy context

The pharmacy is in a large health centre in the suburbs of Bradford city centre. Pharmacy team members dispense NHS prescriptions and sell a range of over‐the‐counter medicines. They provide medicines to people in multi‐compartment compliance packs. And they deliver medicines to people’s homes. The pharmacy provides a seasonal flu vaccination service. It relocated to its current premises in November 2019. The inspection was completed during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Inspection summary findings

Principle 1. Governance

Standards met

The pharmacy adequately identifies and manages risks to its services. And it keeps the records it must by law. Pharmacy team members regularly record and discuss mistakes they make. And they learn from these to reduce the risks of similar mistakes. Team members understand their role to help protect vulnerable people. And they suitably protect people’s private information. The pharmacy has the documented procedures it needs relevant to its services. But some team members do not always read these in a timely manner.

Principle 2. Staff

Standards met

Pharmacy team members have the right qualifications and skills for their roles and the services they provide. They regularly complete ongoing training. And they learn from the pharmacist and each other to keep their knowledge and skills up to date. Pharmacy team members feel comfortable making suggestions. And the pharmacy responds by making changes to help improve its services.

Principle 3. Premises

Standards met

The pharmacy is generally clean and properly maintained. It has a suitable room where people can speak to pharmacy team members privately. The pharmacy provides a suitable space for the services it delivers. But there is some clutter that reduces the team’s available workspace and increases the risks of team members injuring themselves.

Principle 4. Services, including medicines management

Standards met

The pharmacy’s services are accessible to people, including people using wheelchairs. The pharmacy has systems in place to help provide its services safely and effectively. It sources and stores its medicines appropriately. And pharmacy team members provide people with the necessary information about their medicines to help them make informed choices.

Principle 5. Equipment and facilities

Standards met

The pharmacy has the necessary equipment available, which it properly maintains. And it manages and uses the equipment in ways that protect people’s confidentiality.
