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 located next to a medical centre in a residential area of Oldbury, West Midlands. It is open extended hours over seven days and most people who use the pharmacy are from the local area. The pharmacy dispenses NHS prescriptions, and it sells over-the-counter medicines. It offers a home delivery service, and it supplies medicines in multi-compartment compliance aids for some people to help them take their medicines at the right time. This was a reinspection following an inspection in August 2024 where the pharmacy did not meet Standards 1.1, 1.2, 1.6 and 2.2. This reinspection focused on those Standards which had previously not been met. Since the last inspection, the pharmacy's standard operating procedures (SOPs) have been reviewed and updated. Team members have read SOPs relevant to their roles and completed their accredited training courses. The pharmacy team members record their near misses and use these as learning opportunities. And the pharmacy has also improved its record keeping relating to the responsible pharmacist, fridge temperature monitoring, controlled drugs, and private prescriptions.
