Residents invited to share their views on Cheshire West and Chester pharmacies

Saturday, 2 November 2024 15:38

A survey has been launched to find out what residents think about pharmacies in Cheshire West and Chester.

The borough’s Health and Wellbeing Board is inviting anyone who uses pharmacies in the area to share their thoughts and experiences.

Feedback will be used to help make sure services meet the needs of communities across the borough.

Cllr Louise Gittins, Leader of Cheshire West and Chester Council and chair of the Health and Wellbeing Board, said:

“Pharmacies are a really important part of local health services, alongside GPs and hospitals.

“We need to ask residents for their views and experiences so that we can make sure pharmacies meet what communities need, now and in the future.”

Every three years Cheshire West and Chester Health and Wellbeing Board reviews pharmacy services, the needs of local people and how things might change in the future. This process is called a Pharmaceutical Needs Assessment.

The current survey will inform the Pharmaceutical Needs Assessment for 2025.

The survey takes around 15 minutes to complete and is open to anyone who uses community pharmacies. It does not include pharmacies in hospitals.

It will run until 1 December 2024.
