Liverpool · local context

Liverpool PCNs sit within NHS Cheshire and Merseyside ICB.

Liverpool PCNs work with Liverpool University Hospitals on discharge reconciliation and cover England's highest-deprivation core city — pharmacist programmes focus on CVD, COPD and severe mental illness physical health.

For backlog clearance specifically, the Liverpool pathway typically integrates with Liverpool University Hospitals (Royal and Aintree). BCS standardises the cross-organisation workflow into a single hub-supervised process.

BCS removes all of that — pharmacists are part of a clinical team, supervision is built in, and continuity is guaranteed by the Halifax (West Yorkshire)/Chiswick (West London) dual-hub.
