Antimicrobial Stewardship in Ely.
Dual-hub delivery
The only UK provider with a Yorkshire + London hub.
Every antimicrobial stewardship placement in Ely is mobilised from one of our two clinical hubs — Chiswick (West London) as the lead and Halifax (West Yorkshire) as paired cover. The dual-hub model is unique to BCS: no other clinical pharmacy provider in the UK runs Northern and Southern hubs with shared SOPs, shared supervision and same-week cross-cover. That is what guarantees continuity of antimicrobial stewardship for a Ely PCN through sickness, leave and turnover.
- Lead delivery from the BCS Chiswick (West London) hub
- Paired cover from BCS Halifax (West Yorkshire) — same SOPs, same supervision
- Same-week sickness, leave and maternity cover guaranteed
- ARRS-compliant, GPhC-registered, IP-qualified workforce
- One SLA, one report, one escalation point
Ely · local context
Ely PCNs sit within the local East of England ICB (Cambridgeshire and Peterborough, Norfolk and Waveney, Suffolk and North East Essex, Mid and South Essex, Hertfordshire and West Essex, or Bedfordshire, Luton and Milton Keynes).
Ely PCNs combine larger market-town practices with smaller rural branches — BCS combines on-site pharmacist days with HSCN-secured remote prescribing for the smaller sites.

Why Ely PCNs choose BCS for antimicrobial stewardship.
Solo recruitment for antimicrobial stewardship in Ely leaves a network exposed to sickness, maternity and retention risk, and rarely meets the supervision standard ICBs now ask for. BCS removes all of that — pharmacists are part of a clinical team, supervision is built in, and continuity is guaranteed by the Chiswick (West London)/Halifax (West Yorkshire) dual-hub.
Whether you are a single Ely PCN starting your first antimicrobial stewardship programme, or a federation coordinating antimicrobial stewardship across multiple East of England networks, the BCS managed model scales without changing your contract.
Frequently asked questions — Antimicrobial Stewardship in Ely.
Do you align to the national AMS targets?+
Yes — every programme is mapped to the latest NHS England AMS and IIF AMS indicators.
Does BCS already deliver antimicrobial stewardship in Ely?+
BCS supports PCNs and GP practices across East of England from our Chiswick (West London) hub with paired cover from Halifax (West Yorkshire), and is actively delivering or available to mobilise antimicrobial stewardship in Ely. Get in touch and we'll confirm current capacity.
What makes the dual-hub model different?+
BCS is the only UK clinical pharmacy provider running both a Northern (Halifax) and Southern (Chiswick) hub. That means same-week cross-cover, one SOP set across the country, and no service gap when staff are off — something single-hub or single-region providers cannot match.
How quickly can BCS mobilise antimicrobial stewardship in Ely?+
In most cases BCS mobilises antimicrobial stewardship for a Ely PCN within 4 to 6 weeks of contract sign-off, with remote prescribing back-up available from the hub sooner if needed.
