Shoreham by Sea · local context
Shoreham by Sea PCNs sit within the local South East ICB (Sussex, Surrey Heartlands, Kent and Medway, Hampshire and Isle of Wight, Frimley, or Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and Berkshire West).

What BCS delivers for PCNs in Shoreham by Sea.
BCS is a national clinical pharmacist provider built specifically for Primary Care Networks. In Shoreham by Sea, we deliver the same managed service model trusted by PCNs across South East and the wider NHS: a named clinical pharmacist supervised weekly by a senior pharmacist from our Chiswick (West London) hub, plus pharmacy technician capacity, remote prescribing cover and QA-checked outcome reporting against PCN DES, IIF and QOF priorities.
Every placement in Shoreham by Sea is governed by the same compliance stack we run nationally — Cyber Essentials, NHS DSPT, GPhC-registered pharmacists, full clinical indemnity and DPIA documentation per contract. PCN Clinical Directors in Shoreham by Sea get a single SLA, a single monthly outcomes report and a single escalation point.

Why a managed provider
Shoreham by Sea PCNs choose BCS over solo recruitment.
Directly recruiting a single pharmacist in Shoreham by Sea leaves a PCN exposed to sickness, maternity and retention risk, and rarely meets the supervision standard required for ARRS audit. BCS removes all of that — pharmacists are part of a clinical team, supervision is built in, cover is guaranteed and outcomes are evidenced every month.
- Weekly clinical supervision from a senior pharmacist — evidenced for ARRS audit
- Same-week sickness, leave and maternity cover from the Chiswick (West London) hub
- Mobilisation in 4–6 weeks, not 4–6 months
- Outcomes reported against PCN DES 2026/27 indicators
- No tie-in to a single role — scale up or down with your ARRS allocation
