Dual-hub delivery

The only UK provider with a Yorkshire + London hub.

Every IIF and impact delivery placement in Preston 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 IIF and impact delivery for a Preston 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

Preston · local context

Preston PCNs sit within NHS Lancashire and South Cumbria ICB.

Preston PCNs work at the Royal Preston doorstep — a regional specialist centre — so complex polypharmacy and discharge reconciliation are over-represented in the BCS pipeline.

For IIF and impact delivery specifically, the Preston pathway often integrates with Lancashire Teaching Hospitals (Royal Preston). BCS standardises the cross-organisation workflow into a single hub-supervised process so a Preston Clinical Director never has to chase two systems for one outcome.

Why Preston PCNs choose BCS for IIF and impact delivery.

Solo recruitment for IIF and impact delivery in Preston 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 Preston PCN starting your first IIF and impact delivery programme, or a federation coordinating IIF and impact delivery across multiple North West networks, the BCS managed model scales without changing your contract.

Frequently asked questions — IIF & Impact Delivery in Preston.

How much IIF income is medicines-related?+

A meaningful proportion of IIF indicators are medicines-safety or LTC-medicines-related; clinical pharmacy capacity directly protects this income line.

Does BCS already deliver IIF and impact delivery in Preston?+

BCS supports PCNs and GP practices across North West from our Halifax (West Yorkshire) hub with paired cover from Chiswick (West London), and is actively delivering or available to mobilise IIF and impact delivery in Preston. 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 IIF and impact delivery in Preston?+

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