Dual-hub delivery

The only UK provider with a Yorkshire + London hub.

Every polypharmacy reviews placement in Sandhurst 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 polypharmacy reviews for a Sandhurst 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

Sandhurst · local context

Sandhurst 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).

Sandhurst PCNs sit close to a major South East acute trust, so discharge medicines reconciliation runs as a continuous BCS technician workstream.

Why Sandhurst PCNs choose BCS for polypharmacy reviews.

Solo recruitment for polypharmacy reviews in Sandhurst 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 Sandhurst PCN starting your first polypharmacy reviews programme, or a federation coordinating polypharmacy reviews across multiple South East networks, the BCS managed model scales without changing your contract.

Frequently asked questions — Polypharmacy Reviews in Sandhurst.

What is the deprescribing rate you typically achieve?+

Across our PCN book, polypharmacy reviews lead to a deprescribing event in 35-50% of patients reviewed.

Does BCS already deliver polypharmacy reviews in Sandhurst?+

BCS supports PCNs and GP practices across South East from our Chiswick (West London) hub with paired cover from Halifax (West Yorkshire), and is actively delivering or available to mobilise polypharmacy reviews in Sandhurst. 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 polypharmacy reviews in Sandhurst?+

In most cases BCS mobilises polypharmacy reviews for a Sandhurst PCN within 4 to 6 weeks of contract sign-off, with remote prescribing back-up available from the hub sooner if needed.
