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 community pharmacy is situated on a high street, in a residential area of Preston. The pharmacy dispenses NHS prescriptions, private prescriptions and sells over-the-counter medicines. It also provides a range of services including flu vaccinations and the NHS Pharmacy First service. The pharmacy supplies medicines in multi-compartment compliance packs to some people to help them take their medicines at the right time. An optician forms part of the premises and is a separate entity to the pharmacy. 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.
Standards by principle
Principle 1 – Governance
Standards met
The pharmacy team follows written procedures, and this helps them to provide services effectively. And they know how to keep people's information safe. The pharmacy generally keeps the necessary records as required by law. Members of the team discuss and record when things go wrong. And they review the records to help identify further learning opportunities.
Principle 2 – Staff
Standards met
The pharmacy has enough team members to manage the workload safely. And they complete the necessary training for their role. But ongoing learning is not routinely provided, so learning needs may not always be identified or addressed.
Principle 3 – Premises
Standards met
The pharmacy premises are suitable for the services provided. A consultation room is available for people to have a private conversation with a member of the team.
Principle 4 – Services
Standards met
The pharmacy's services are easy to access. And it manages and provides them effectively. It gets its medicines from licensed sources, stores them appropriately and carries out regular checks to help make sure that they are in good condition. But members of the pharmacy team do not always know when they are handing out higher-risk medicines. So they might not always be able to check that the medicines are still suitable, or give people advice about taking them.
Principle 5 – Equipment
Standards met
Members of the pharmacy team have access to the equipment they need for the services they provide. And they keep the equipment clean in a manner expected of a healthcare setting.
