South Yorkshire LPC – The local voice of community pharmacy

Requests to provide the seasonal influenza vaccinations at locations other than the pharmacy premises (off-site)

The Community pharmacy advanced service specifications – seasonal influenza vaccination for adults and children include a requirement that pharmacies seek consent from the commissioner if they wish to carry out vaccinations at a location off the pharmacy premises (e.g. patient’s home, care home, long-stay residential facility or community venue).

Action Required: Reports of Ineligible Patients Booking COVID-19 or Flu Vaccinations via NBS

Community Pharmacy South Yorkshire (CPSY) has been made aware of reports that some patients who are not eligible have been able to book COVID-19 or flu vaccination appointments at pharmacies through the National Booking Service (NBS). Community Pharmacy England (CPE) has confirmed that this issue was first raised with them yesterday and has since been escalated to NHS England. CPE has asked all LPCs and Committees to share data and insights to help establish the root cause of the problem.
