Pharmacist-led Deprescribing in Westminster.
Westminster · local context
Westminster PCNs sit within NHS North West London ICB.
Westminster PCNs face one of England's widest health inequality gradients — wealthy Belgravia practices and high-deprivation Church Street populations on the same network list.
For deprescribing specifically, the Westminster pathway typically integrates with Imperial College Healthcare and Chelsea & Westminster. BCS standardises the cross-organisation workflow into a single hub-supervised process.

Why Westminster PCNs choose BCS for deprescribing.
Solo recruitment for deprescribing in Westminster 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.
