Antimicrobial Stewardship · Hackney
Antimicrobial Stewardship in Hackney.
Hackney · local context
Hackney PCNs sit within NHS North East London ICB.
Hackney PCNs (City and Hackney) cover one of the most diverse and deprived populations in England, with a long-standing focus on cardiovascular prevention and severe mental illness physical health.
For antimicrobial stewardship specifically, the Hackney pathway typically integrates with Homerton Healthcare and Barts Health. BCS standardises the cross-organisation workflow into a single hub-supervised process.

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