Have your say on pharmaceutical service provision in Brent

Brent Council is consulting on local pharmaceutical services and whether they meet the needs of local people. This is what they say:
If you use local pharmaceutical services, we want your views on the services provided so we can make sure that you can access pharmaceutical services easily and that you are happy with the service you receive.

The consultation will take place from 5 December 2014 until 3 February 2015.
Pharmaceutical services include services provided from:
  • local pharmacies
  • dispensaries at doctors' surgeries
  • specialist appliance contractors.
Local pharmacies also provide healthcare help and advice and are often the first point of contact when people are concerned about their health.
The Consultation Document and draft Pharmaceutical Needs Assessment can be found HERE The document is well worth reading for itself as it gives a comprehensive overview of health issues in the borough as well as data on access to pharmacies.
