Pharmacists Working in GP Practices
Pharmacy guide
This guide will support you working in or with GP practices. It's useful for pharmacists:
- Thinking of a clinical career in general practice
- Starting work in a GP practice for the first time
- Already supporting GPs and their colleagues in primary care roles.
We believe primary care patients should have the benefit of a pharmacist’s clinical expertise. Just like hospital patients do. This will help patients make the best use of their medicines and reduce hospital admissions.
There are more pharmacists across England, Scotland and Wales in clinical roles within GP practices. We support the closer working of pharmacists with GPs and have been encouraging more of these roles to be developed.
