Polypharmacy Review Service · London
Polypharmacy Review Service in London.
London · local context
London PCNs sit within five London ICBs (NW, NC, NE, SE, SW London).
London PCNs operate across five ICB footprints with the country's most diverse patient cohorts and the highest care home density per square mile — pharmacist programmes here have to flex from inner-city deprivation in Tower Hamlets to commuter-belt frailty in Bromley.
For polypharmacy reviews specifically, the London pathway typically integrates with Imperial, UCLH, Barts Health, King's and St George's. BCS standardises the cross-organisation workflow into a single hub-supervised process.

Why London PCNs choose BCS for polypharmacy reviews.
Solo recruitment for polypharmacy reviews in London 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.
