Clinical Pharmacist Support Service

Clinical pharmacists in primary care play a crucial role in supporting the modern NHS, helping to deliver safer, more efficient healthcare at the community level. Through the ARRS clinical pharmacist programme, NHS England has made clinical pharmacists a key part of Primary Care Networks, helping to ease pressure on GPs and improve access to patient care.

The benefits of pharmacy specialists in primary care are clear:

• Medicines optimisation in primary care, ensuring patients receive the most effective, safe treatments.
• Managing complex medication regimes for patients with multiple conditions.
• Supporting GPs by handling medication reviews, repeat prescriptions, and patient consultations.
• Helping with managing long-term conditions and chronic disease management to reduce hospital admissions and improve quality of life.
