Pharmacy context
The pharmacy is opposite a busy health centre with several doctor’s practices. It dispenses NHS and private prescriptions, gives health advice and sells over‐the‐counter medicines. The pharmacy supplies medicines in multi‐compartment compliance packs for people who find it difficult to take their medicines at the correct time. The pharmacy’s services include delivery, substance misuse, weight loss, travel clinic, Pharmacy First, new medicines service, ambulatory blood pressure monitoring, oral contraception and earwax removal This was a desktop inspection following an inspection in July 2025 where the pharmacy did not meet Standards 3.1. This reinspection focused on those Standards which had previously not been met. The website referred to another pharmacy within the same company and it has been updated to contain the required information to meet the standard.
