Inquiry into the contribution of community pharmacy to health services in Wales

CP 28 – Ruth Ridge

While I am not sure how WAG defines a Community Pharmacy, in Gower we have seen changes over the last 3 or 4 years that have incorporated pharmacies into the local GPs' surrgeries/health care facilities. We have also seen a widening of services (e.g. giving advice).

Both these changes have been a distinct improvemnet for patients in our area.
