We have co-badged joint statements with the Royal Pharmaceutical Society and the British Medical Association encouraging greater use of community and clinical pharmacists across Primary Care Networks (PCNs). The statements highlight pharmacists' expertise in medicines and how they can achieve better outcomes for patients as part of the wider practice team.
The Primary Care Networks and Community Pharmacists Statement encourages PCNs to consider how they can work together in supporting the health and wellbeing of the local population, including helping to address current workload pressures within PCN services.
The Primary Care Networks and Clinical Pharmacists Statement highlights their role in supporting the integration of primary care with the wider healthcare team, particularly with clinical colleagues in community, mental health and hospital pharmacy.
