Pharmacy context
The pharmacy is in the Nottinghamshire town of Beeston. Its main services include dispensing prescriptions, selling over-the-counter medicines, and providing a range of NHS consultation services to people including Pharmacy First, contraception services, blood pressure checks and seasonal flu vaccinations and a private prescribing service. The pharmacy provides some medicines to people in multi-compartment compliance packs designed to help people to take their medicines. And it delivers medicines to people’s homes.
Enforcement action has been taken against this pharmacy, which remains in force at the time of this inspection, and there are restrictions on the provision of some services. The enforcement action taken allows the pharmacy to continue providing other services, which are not affected by the restrictions imposed.This was a full reinspection following an inspection in October 2024 where the pharmacy did not meet Standards 1.1, 1.2, 1.5, 1.6 and 4.2. The pharmacy has ceased providing its private prescribing service due to the enforcement action taken and as such the risks previously identified are currently mitigated.
