Doncaster Pharmacy First Collaborative Event Series

Together with Doncaster Local Medical Committee (LMC) and the South Yorkshire Integrated Care Board (ICB), we are running a series of collaborative events for GP practice, community pharmacy, PCN and SY ICB Doncaster Place colleagues to explore how collaboration can support all members of the primary care team to deliver improved outcomes via the new Pharmacy First service.

The Pharmacy First Service was introduced as part of the Primary Care Access Recovery Plan on 31st January 2024.  Since this time both General Practice and Community Pharmacy teams are likely to have experienced both successes and challenges with implementing this service.

We are keen to bring primary care colleagues together from General Practices, community pharmacies, PCNs and SY ICB Doncaster Place to build better relationships, explore the seven clinical pathways together and understand the challenges and opportunities for everyone, developing solutions and sharing best practice through our discussions.
