Pharmacy context
This pharmacy is located in a residential area in Rastrick. Dispensing NHS prescriptions is its main activity, and it also sells a range of over-the-counter medicines. Its team members provide medicines to some people in multi-compartment compliance packs to help them take their medicines safely. A medicine delivery service is available for people to have their medicines delivered to them.
This was a reinspection following an inspection in August 2024 where the pharmacy did not meet Standards 1.2, 1.6, 2.1, 3.1 and 4.3. This reinspection focused on those Standards which had previously not been met. Since the last inspection team members had started recording mistakes that were identified during the dispensing process, and these were discussed to help learn from them. Record keeping requirements had improved and were being maintained in line with legal requirements. And some areas of the pharmacy had been tidied and organised.

What do the inspection outcomes mean?
After an inspection each pharmacy receives one overall outcome. This will be either Standards met or Standards not all met
| The pharmacy has met all the standards for registered pharmacies | |
| The pharmacy has not met one or more of the standards for registered pharmacies |
What does 'pharmacy has not met all standards' mean?
When a pharmacy has not met all standards, they are required to complete an improvement action plan, which you can find via a link at the top left of this page. We monitor progress to check the improvements are made and inspect again after six months to make sure the pharmacy is maintaining these improvements. A new report will then be published.
