Why Saffron Walden PCNs choose BCS for lipid optimisation.

Solo recruitment for lipid optimisation in Saffron Walden 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.
