Antimicrobial Stewardship in Dorking.
Dorking · local context
Dorking PCNs sit within the local South East ICB (Sussex, Surrey Heartlands, Kent and Medway, Hampshire and Isle of Wight, Frimley, or Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and Berkshire West).
Dorking PCNs sit close to a major South East acute trust, so discharge medicines reconciliation runs as a continuous BCS technician workstream.

Why Dorking PCNs choose BCS for antimicrobial stewardship.
Solo recruitment for antimicrobial stewardship in Dorking 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 Chiswick (West London)/Halifax (West Yorkshire) dual-hub.
