Joint statement from the GPhC and the RPS on the use of NHS volunteers to deliver medicines in England.
Pharmacy teams, as an essential part of the frontline response to COVID-19, are currently working under enormous pressure.
There is an unprecedented demand on pharmacy services, including the need to get medicines to extremely vulnerable people, including the “shielded” group who must stay at home. We therefore welcome the recently launched Pandemic Delivery Service and the COVID-19 NHS Volunteer Responders initiative as a means of supporting pharmacy teams with tasks such as delivering medicines.
