Polypharmacy Review Service · Southampton
Polypharmacy Review Service in Southampton.
Southampton · local context
Southampton PCNs sit within NHS Hampshire and Isle of Wight ICB.
Southampton PCNs work at the UHS doorstep — a regional specialist centre — so complex polypharmacy and discharge reconciliation are over-represented in the BCS pipeline.
For polypharmacy reviews specifically, the Southampton pathway typically integrates with University Hospital Southampton. BCS standardises the cross-organisation workflow into a single hub-supervised process.

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