Pharmacist-led Deprescribing in Keynsham.
Keynsham · local context
Keynsham PCNs sit within the local South West ICB (Devon, Cornwall, Dorset, Somerset, Gloucestershire, or Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire).
Keynsham 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 Keynsham PCNs choose BCS for deprescribing.

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.
