Frequently asked questions — Extended Access Pharmacist in Ingleby Barwick.
Is this remote or in-person?+
Both. Most PCNs use a blend — in-person pharmacist on the busier evening sessions, remote IP pharmacist on quieter ones. We'll size to your hub's actual demand.
Will the pharmacist see acute patients?+
Yes — acute medication queries and on-the-day prescribing are exactly what this is built for, within agreed clinical scope.
Can this be funded through ARRS?+
In most hub configurations, yes — we'll confirm at mobilisation. Where ARRS doesn't fit, we offer a sessional rate per the BCS framework.
