Pharmacy context

This extended hours pharmacy is open seven days per week. It is located on a busy main road in Derby. Its main activity is dispensing prescriptions, but it also provides some other NHS pharmacy services such as Pharmacy First, the New Medicine Service and the supervised consumption of medicines. It supplies some medicines in multi-compartment compliance packs to help people take them correctly. And it offers a medicine home delivery service. This was a re-inspection as the pharmacy had not met all the Standards for registered pharmacies when last inspected, in July 2024.

  Standards met

  The pharmacy has enough team members to effectively manage the workload. Members of the team work well together and they ask for help if they need it. They are appropriately trained for their roles or are enrolled onto recognised training courses.

The pharmacy provides a supervised consumption of medicines service effectively.

• 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.
