Structured Medication Review Service · Croydon
Structured Medication Review Service in Croydon.
Croydon · local context
Croydon PCNs sit within NHS South West London ICB.
Croydon PCNs operate at near-borough scale with notable ethnic diversity and CVD prevalence — structured medication reviews and high-risk drug monitoring run as a continuous BCS programme rather than a project.
For SMR service specifically, the Croydon pathway typically integrates with Croydon Health Services. BCS standardises the cross-organisation workflow into a single hub-supervised process.

Why Croydon PCNs choose BCS for SMR service.
Solo recruitment for SMR service in Croydon 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.
