Pharmacy context
The pharmacy is located on a busy main road near to a town centre in a largely residential area. The people who use the pharmacy are mainly older people. The pharmacy receives around 80% of its prescriptions electronically. It provides a range of services, including Medicines Use Reviews, influenza vaccinations and a stop smoking service. It supplies medications in multi-compartment compliance packs to some people who live in their own homes to help them manage their medicines. And it provides substance misuse medications to a small number of people.
Standards by principle
Principle 1 – Governance
Standards met
Overall, the pharmacy adequately identifies and manages the risks associated with its services to help provide them safely. It largely protects people’s personal information well and it regularly seeks feedback from people who use the pharmacy. It mostly keeps the records it needs to keep by law, to show that its medicines are supplied safely and legally. And team members understand their role in protecting vulnerable people.
Principle 2 – Staff
Standards met
The pharmacy has enough trained team members to provide its services safely. They can raise any concerns or make suggestions. The team members can take professional decisions and team members are comfortable about raising concerns to do with the pharmacy or other issues affecting people’s safety.
Principle 3 – Premises
Standards met
The premises provide a safe, secure, and clean environment for the pharmacy's services. But the pharmacy could do more to keep some areas tidy and free from clutter.
Principle 4 – Services
Standards met
Overall, the pharmacy provides its services safely and manages them well. The pharmacy gets its medicines from reputable suppliers and stores them properly. It responds appropriately to drug alerts and product recalls. This helps make sure that its medicines and devices are safe for people to use. People with a range of needs can access the pharmacy’s services. But the pharmacy doesn't always highlight prescriptions for higher-risk medicines. And this may mean that it misses opportunities to speak with people when they collect these medicines.
Principle 5 – Equipment
Standards met
The pharmacy has the equipment it needs to provide its services safely. It uses its equipment to help protect people’s personal information.
