Frequently asked questions — Extended Access Pharmacist in Wandsworth.
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.
Does BCS already deliver extended access pharmacist in Wandsworth?+
BCS supports PCNs and GP practices across London from our Chiswick (West London) hub, and is actively delivering or available to mobilise extended access pharmacist cover in Wandsworth. Get in touch and we'll confirm current capacity for your network specifically.
How quickly can BCS mobilise extended access pharmacist cover in Wandsworth?+
In most cases BCS mobilises extended access pharmacist cover for a Wandsworth PCN within 4 to 6 weeks of contract sign-off, with remote prescribing back-up available from the Chiswick (West London) hub sooner if needed.
