Antimicrobial Stewardship · Exmouth
Antimicrobial Stewardship in Exmouth.
Exmouth · local context
Exmouth PCNs sit within the local South West ICB (Devon, Cornwall, Dorset, Somerset, Gloucestershire, or Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire).
Exmouth PCNs cover a large rural-tilted catchment, so face-to-face pharmacist time is sequenced around branch sites and care homes — HSCN-secured remote prescribing closes the gap.

Why Exmouth PCNs choose BCS for antimicrobial stewardship.
Solo recruitment for antimicrobial stewardship in Exmouth 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.
