  • European Union pharmacists new to the UK wishing to register in the UK.
  • Pharmacists needing guidance to improve practice

Indeed, any pharmacist, who have had limited exposure or a narrow view of UK pharmacy operations.

At this time Pharmacy in the UK is changing. Consultations are currently taking place on

  • the ‘Standards for Pharmacy Professionals’ by the GPhC (ending 27/6/16)
  • and with the Department of Health on hub and spoke operation and other changes to The Human Medicines (Amendment) (No. 2) Regulations 2016 (ending 17/5/16) which are planned to come into force 1st October 2016.
