High-Risk Drug Monitoring for York PCNs and GP practices.
Bespoke Clinical Services delivers high-risk drug monitoring to Primary Care Networks and GP practices in York and across Yorkshire & Humber.

The York service is mobilised from our Halifax (West Yorkshire) hub.
PCN Clinical Directors and Practice Managers in York get a single SLA, a single monthly outcomes report and a single escalation point — the BCS managed model, applied to high-risk drug monitoring specifically.

- Weekly clinical supervision from a senior pharmacist at the Halifax (West Yorkshire) hub
- Same-week sickness, leave and maternity cover — no service gap in York
