Community pharmacy

Lack of privacy

From Mr A. G. Hopkins, MRPharmS

Although I approve of the prospective use of pharmacists in general practice for helping and advising patients, I am perturbed by the lack of a private area in most pharmacies where a meaningful consultation about intimate problems can be conducted.

The Royal Pharmaceutical Society, through its inspectorate, should give this function its due importance when registering premises.
