Moss wins new prison contract

Moss Pharmacy has won a contract to supply pharmaceutical services to Her Majesty's Prison Everthorpe.

The contract will allow a local branch of Moss Pharmacy in Hull to supply pharmaceutical products to the prison for the next two years. Moss also plans to provide clinical services to the prisoners and to the prison staff.

Moss has been providing pharmaceutical services to prisons in Scotland for some time (PJ, 30 March 2002, p427).

The lead pharmacist for the new HMP Everthorpe contract, Jonathan Whitelam, commented: "I am delighted that we have won this contract. Not only does it re-inforce our role as professional health care advisers, it also allows us to share and further develop the experience gained through our contract with the Scottish Prison Service, which spans 16 establishments. Furthermore, our contract with HMP Hull means that we already have relevant local experience."
