Valproate Safety Programme · Scarborough
Valproate Safety Programme in Scarborough.
Scarborough · local context
Scarborough PCNs sit within NHS Humber and North Yorkshire ICB.
Scarborough PCNs cover a coastal patch with an unusually old population — BCS combines on-site pharmacist days with HSCN-secured remote prescribing across smaller branch sites.
For valproate safety specifically, the Scarborough pathway typically integrates with York and Scarborough Teaching Hospitals. BCS standardises the cross-organisation workflow into a single hub-supervised process.

Why Scarborough PCNs choose BCS for valproate safety.
Solo recruitment for valproate safety in Scarborough 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 Halifax (West Yorkshire)/Chiswick (West London) dual-hub.
