Hinckley · NHS Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland ICB

Built for Hinckley PCNs.

BCS provides managed clinical pharmacist services for Primary Care Networks and GP practices in Hinckley. 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. Hinckley PCNs sit on the Leicestershire–Warwickshire border, so discharge reconciliation has to span both UHL and George Eliot — a workflow BCS standardises into a single hub-supervised pathway.

Yes. BCS is a managed clinical pharmacist service for PCNs and GP practices in Hinckley — we handle recruitment, employment, supervision, CPD, indemnity and leave cover, so the practice gets clinical capacity without the HR burden. Every role is ARRS-compliant against Annex B of the Network Contract DES.

How quickly can BCS deploy a clinical pharmacist into a Hinckley PCN?+

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.

Do BCS clinical pharmacists in Hinckley work in EMIS Web or SystmOne?+

Both. We work in EMIS Web and SystmOne via the practice's existing smartcard pathways and our own HSCN-secured infrastructure — no separate integration required.

How does BCS supervise pharmacists deployed in Hinckley?+

Every pharmacist has a named senior pharmacist supervisor. Supervision is weekly, documented and audit-ready — exactly the evidence ARRS audit and CQC inspection require. Hinckley PCNs sit on the Leicestershire–Warwickshire border, so discharge reconciliation has to span both UHL and George Eliot — a workflow BCS standardises into a single hub-supervised pathway.
