Meraj Pharmacy (1087389)

Inspection outcome: Standards met

Last inspection: 24/04/2019

Pharmacy context

A busy branch of a small group of independent pharmacies. The pharmacy is situated on a busy main road opposite a health centre. As well as dispensing NHS prescriptions the pharmacy supplies medicines in multi-compartment compliance trays. And offers the minor ailments and emergency hormonal contraception services. It is a Healthy Living Pharmacy.

Inspection summary findings

Principle 1. Governance

Standards met

The pharmacy generally identifies and manages the risks associated with its services. The pharmacy keeps people’s private information safe. The pharmacy asks its customers and staff for their views. Team members use the procedures in place to safeguard vulnerable people. The pharmacy generally maintains the records that it must keep by law. But some records are incomplete. So, it may not always be able to show exactly what happened if any problems arise.

Principle 2. Staff

Standards met

The pharmacy team members manage the workload within the pharmacy well. And they work well together. They are comfortable about providing feedback to the pharmacist and they are involved in improving the pharmacy’s services.

Principle 3. Premises

Standards met

The premises are clean, secure, and maintained to a level of hygiene appropriate for the pharmacy’s services.

Principle 4. Services, including medicines management

Standards met

People with a range of needs can access the pharmacy. Pharmacy services are generally well managed. But team members sometimes leave medicines in unsealed multi-compartment compliance trays overnight. This could increase the chances of mistakes being made. And it could affect the quality of the medicines.

Principle 5. Equipment and facilities

Standards met

The pharmacy has the equipment and facilities it needs to provide its services.
