CVD Prevention in Gloucester.
Dual-hub delivery
The only UK provider with a Yorkshire + London hub.
Every CVD prevention delivery placement in Gloucester 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 CVD prevention delivery for a Gloucester 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
Gloucester · local context
Gloucester PCNs sit within the local South West ICB (Devon, Cornwall, Dorset, Somerset, Gloucestershire, or Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire).
Gloucester PCNs serve an older South West population with significant polypharmacy in over-75s — SMRs and care home in-reach dominate the BCS schedule.

Why Gloucester PCNs choose BCS for CVD prevention delivery.
Solo recruitment for CVD prevention delivery in Gloucester 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 Gloucester PCN starting your first CVD prevention delivery programme, or a federation coordinating CVD prevention delivery across multiple South West networks, the BCS managed model scales without changing your contract.
Frequently asked questions — CVD Prevention in Gloucester.
Is CVD prevention IIF-paying?+
Yes — multiple CVD indicators sit in IIF/QOF; pharmacist clinics directly deliver against them.
Does BCS already deliver CVD prevention delivery in Gloucester?+
BCS supports PCNs and GP practices across South West from our Chiswick (West London) hub with paired cover from Halifax (West Yorkshire), and is actively delivering or available to mobilise CVD prevention delivery in Gloucester. 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 CVD prevention delivery in Gloucester?+
In most cases BCS mobilises CVD prevention delivery for a Gloucester PCN within 4 to 6 weeks of contract sign-off, with remote prescribing back-up available from the hub sooner if needed.
