Prescribing Safety Improvement in Redbridge.

Pharmacist-led prescribing safety improvement using PINCER and ICB priority indicators — measured, remediated and re-audited every cycle. Delivered to Redbridge PCNs and GP practices from the BCS Chiswick (West London) hub, with paired cover from our Halifax (West Yorkshire) hub — the only UK dual-hub clinical pharmacy model.

Redbridge · local context

Redbridge PCNs sit within NHS North East London ICB.

Redbridge PCNs serve one of England's most South Asian populations with very high diabetes prevalence — culturally competent pharmacist-led SMRs are the single biggest QOF driver.

For prescribing safety improvement specifically, the Redbridge pathway typically integrates with Barking, Havering and Redbridge University Hospitals (King George and Queen's). BCS standardises the cross-organisation workflow into a single hub-supervised process.

Why Redbridge PCNs choose BCS for prescribing safety improvement.

Solo recruitment for prescribing safety improvement in Redbridge 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.
