What are GPhC inspection reports?
The General Pharmaceutical Council (GPhC) inspects registered pharmacies against five standards. Reports show whether the pharmacy met the standards, with improvement or enforcement action where needed. Premises ID is the same as the pharmacy's GPhC registration number.

Pharmacy context
This is a traditional community pharmacy located in a town centre. NHS dispensing is the main activity, and the pharmacy is equipped with a dispensing robot. A separate robot is used to dispense medicines in multi compartment compliance packs (MDS), and the pharmacy also acts as a dispensing hub to assemble MDS for another local branch. A range of other services are offered, including substance misuse service, pharmacy first service, and vaccination services for COVID-19 and flu. The pharmacy premises recently extended which involved a change of address.
Standards by principle
Principle 1 – Governance
Standards met
Members of the pharmacy team follow written instructions to help them work safely and effectively. They keep the records that are needed by law. And they record things that go wrong so that they can learn from them. Then they take action to prevent the same mistakes from happening again.
Principle 2 – Staff
Standards met
There are enough staff to safely manage the workload and they have the skills they need for the jobs they do. Members of the team work well together and they ask for help if they need it.
Principle 3 – Premises
Standards met
The pharmacy is clean, tidy and well organised. It provides a suitable environment for healthcare.
Principle 4 – Services
Standards met
The pharmacy provides a range of services, and they are easy to access. It uses robotic systems to improve the efficiency of the dispensing operation. And members of the pharmacy team work effectively and support people taking higher-risk medicines by making extra checks and providing counselling where necessary. The pharmacy obtains medicines from licensed suppliers and carries out checks to make sure that they are kept in good condition.
Principle 5 – Equipment
Standards met
Members of the pharmacy team have the equipment and facilities they need for the services they provide. Equipment is appropriately maintained so that it is safe to use, and it is used in a way that protects privacy.
