At the very centre of the Healthy Living Pharmacy is the use of the skills, passion and commitment of the whole pharmacy team ensuring that service delivery benefits from strength in depth and an ethos that proactively makes every contact count to improve population health.
The roots of a Healthy Living Pharmacy are in change management and organisational development – developing workforce capability, ensuring premises and facilities are fit for purpose and engaging with the community to deliver consistently high quality health and wellbeing services alongside the provision of our core pharmaceutical care services.
Being a Healthy Living Pharmacy and meeting all the criteria is an essential contractual requirement for all community pharmacies in England.
Please note that with effect from 1st July 2023, we have stopped offering our HLP Leadership course and Health Champion course (RSPH Understanding Health Improvement Level 2 qualification).
As the primary founders of the HLP model, this has been a very difficult decision to make. We would like to thank all the pharmacies, LPCs, and the many thousands of pharmacy team members who have undertaken our training and wish them well in the future.
We still truly believe in the power of HLPs to improve the public’s health.
