Enhanced Health in Care Homes Pharmacy in Bath.
Bath · local context
Bath PCNs sit within NHS Bath and North East Somerset, Swindon and Wiltshire ICB.
Bath PCNs serve an older, wealthier population with rising polypharmacy in over-75s — SMR throughput and care home in-reach drive the BCS schedule.
For EHCH pharmacy support specifically, the Bath pathway typically integrates with Royal United Hospitals Bath. BCS standardises the cross-organisation workflow into a single hub-supervised process.

Why Bath PCNs choose BCS for EHCH pharmacy support.
Solo recruitment for EHCH pharmacy support in Bath 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.
