Pharmacy context
This community pharmacy is located on a main road in a residential area serving the local population. Its main activity is dispensing NHS prescriptions. It also provides a large number of people with medicines in multi‐compartment compliance packs, including those living in assisted living and care home establishments. The pharmacy provides other NHS services which includes substance misuse treatment, and it has a home delivery service. This was a reinspection following an inspection in September 2025 where the pharmacy did not meet Standard 1.6. This reinspection focused on the Standard which had previously not been met. The pharmacy had made appropriate improvements to the way it manages its controlled drug stock.
