Clarification (April 2008)
The following points from Steve Acres’ presentation are clarified.


A major reason for the hospital failing to retain band 6 pharmacists was the attractiveness of community pharmacy wages, not just the requirement to do night shifts.

Technicians are joining pharmacists on evening and weekend shifts, not on night shifts as stated in the report.

Newly prescribed drugs do not always arrive on the ward within five to 10 minutes, although this is possible.
