So true. The profession is like an ostrich hiding its head underground, hoping the storm will abate. The traditional model of pharmacy is dead we need to move on.

Why can Pharmacies not support the annual influenza service of school children etc. Current increase in workload will be paid for by Community Pharmacy – fees will be reduced to pay the ‘loan’ back. Currently Community Pharmacy is still on the high street and available for national emergencies such as this – not sure how long for though. Traditionally year on year 10% increase of workload and 3% increase in funding – except now we’ve got a funding freeze – so just and increase in workload. Staff get same money working filling shelves at supermarket – waiting for Pharmacies to join the Poundshops and for Government to then have to pay to open ‘new’ Health Hubs in the High Street!
