Only six essential small pharmacies have so far managed to secure long-term contractual arrangements with their local NHS organisations, three months after the previous ESP LPS scheme ended.
According to figures obtained by the NPA under a Freedom of Information request, 48 pharmacies are currently in limbo and many more have only short-term arrangements in place. €NHSE needs to move much more quickly to secure the future of these services,€ says NPA head of communications, Stephen Fishwick.
