DURHAM COUNTY COUNCIL CONSULTATIONS
What do you think of the pharmacies and GP practice dispensaries in County Durham?
Pharmacies and, in rural areas GP practice dispensaries, are an integral part of our community and to ensure that they continue to meet residents needs, Durham County Council are
inviting you to tell them what you think, so your feedback can be used to help shape services over the next three years.
From 16 May to 14 July 2022, DCC are holding an online consultation with residents, which is part of a Pharmaceutical Needs Assessment (PNA). Producing a PNA is a
legal responsibility of the Health and Wellbeing Board and considers how accessible pharmaceutical services (i.e. services from pharmacies and GP practice
dispensaries) are for our residents and the types of services that are available.
The draft PNA for 2022-25 that DCC are now consulting on has already taken into account the results of public survey work conducted by Healthwatch and through the
Community Champions network.
Your views are important during this consultation to help shape pharmaceutical services now and in the future. Your response could influence your local
pharmaceutical services.
To take part, please read through the draft assessment for 2022-25 and submit your comments at https://www.durham.gov.uk/consultation or send your feedback to
pnaconsultation@durham.gov.uk
The consultation closes at 5pm on 14 July 2022.
