Pharmacy context
This community pharmacy is on a busy shopping street in Skegness, a seaside town and popular tourist resort in Lincolnshire. Its main services include dispensing NHS and private prescriptions and selling over-the-counter medicines. It provides a range of NHS consultation services including Pharmacy First, blood pressure checks, contraception services, the New Medicine Service (NMS), and seasonal vaccinations. And it offers private consultations for weight management, travel health, and minor ailments. The pharmacy supplies medicines in multi-compartment compliance packs to some people to help them remember to take their medicines. It also supplies medicines to people residing in a local care home. And it offers a medicine delivery service. This was a reinspection following an inspection in February 2026 where the pharmacy did not meet Standards 1.1, 1.2 and 1.6. This reinspection focused mainly on those Standards which had previously not been met. The pharmacy has improved against these standards. It has taken steps to review and ensure its written procedures correctly reflect the way it provides its services. It is monitoring the safety and quality of its private consultation services through regular audit. And it is making and maintaining its records as required.
