Built for Clowne PCNs.

Every pharmacist is ARRS-compliant under Annex B of the Network Contract DES, weekly clinically supervised, and works in EMIS Web or SystmOne via the practice's existing smartcard pathways. Clowne PCNs cover former industrial or coalfield communities with notable CVD and respiratory burden — pharmacist programmes lean on high-risk drug monitoring and LTC reviews.

In most cases within 4 to 6 weeks of contract sign-off, with HSCN-secured remote prescribing back-up available sooner where capacity is urgent. ARRS underspend mobilisation runs on the same 6-week pathway.
