Registration

Are pharmacy premises issued with a registration certificate?

From Mr S. Shah, MRPharmS

I know that locum and employee pharmacist registration with the Royal Pharmaceutical Society can be checked by presentation of the registration certificate, or by telephoning the Society. But how can a pharmacist check the registration status of a pharmacy premises? Does the Society issue a certificate of registration for a pharmacy or does the pharmacist or locum have to telephone the Society to check this?

RICHARD ANDERSON, registration assistant at the Royal Pharmaceutical Society, replies:

The Society does not issue certificates to pharmacy premises. All premises registered with us appear in the printed register, available in the Society’s library and copyright libraries, and also appear on the online database, which is a live database and therefore more accurate than the printed register.
