Pharmacy context
This is an independently owned community pharmacy in a small shopping parade in a residential area of Waterlooville. The pharmacy dispenses people's prescriptions and sells over-the-counter medicines. Its provides healthcare advice and a few services such as Blood Pressure testing, Pharmacy First and the New Medicine Service (NMS). The pharmacy also provides a flu vaccination service in the autumn and winter seasons. This was a reinspection following an inspection in March 2026 where the pharmacy did not meet Standards 1.2 and 4.3. This reinspection focused on those Standards which had previously not been met. The pharmacy has since improved the records it keeps of the mistakes its team members make, and also has better records of its fridge temperatures.
