The end-to-end care home pathway — weekly multidisciplinary rounds, SMRs, falls and sedation review, anticipatory care plans and EHCH evidence. Delivered to Nottingham PCNs and GP practices from the BCS Halifax (West Yorkshire) hub — with paired cover from our Chiswick (West London) hub. BCS is the only UK provider operating this dual-hub clinical pharmacy model.

Dual-hub delivery

The only UK provider with a Yorkshire + London hub.

Every care home pathway transformation placement in Nottingham is mobilised from one of our two clinical hubs — Halifax (West Yorkshire) as the lead and Chiswick (West London) 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 care home pathway transformation for a Nottingham PCN through sickness, leave and turnover.

  • Lead delivery from the BCS Halifax (West Yorkshire) hub
  • Paired cover from BCS Chiswick (West London) — 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

Nottingham · local context

Nottingham PCNs sit within the local East Midlands ICB (Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland; Nottingham and Nottinghamshire; Derby and Derbyshire; Lincolnshire; or Northamptonshire).

Nottingham PCNs serve a diverse, growing population with notable diabetes prevalence — pharmacist-led SMRs and CVD optimisation drive the BCS pipeline.

Why Nottingham PCNs choose BCS for care home pathway transformation.

Solo recruitment for care home pathway transformation in Nottingham 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 Halifax (West Yorkshire)/Chiswick (West London) dual-hub.

Whether you are a single Nottingham PCN starting your first care home pathway transformation programme, or a federation coordinating care home pathway transformation across multiple East Midlands networks, the BCS managed model scales without changing your contract.

Frequently asked questions — Care Home Pathway in Nottingham.

What is the impact on admissions?+

Care home pathway transformation typically reduces unplanned admissions from the home by 15–25% within 12 months.

Does BCS already deliver care home pathway transformation in Nottingham?+

BCS supports PCNs and GP practices across East Midlands from our Halifax (West Yorkshire) hub with paired cover from Chiswick (West London), and is actively delivering or available to mobilise care home pathway transformation in Nottingham. 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 care home pathway transformation in Nottingham?+

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