Healthy Living Pharmacy - making a difference to public health
The role of pharmacy of in health care and prevention is increasingly recognised and is referenced in both the NHS Long Term Plan and the Prevention Green Paper.
Since April 2021, being a Healthy Living Pharmacy (HLP) is an essential requirement of the community pharmacy contractual framework as the foundation of current and future prevention and protection activity. HLP has a key role in improving both the physical and mental health of individuals and communities plus supporting the NHS's agenda to tackle health inequalities.
Pharmacists and members of the pharmacy team require additional knowledge and skills to deliver against the increasing demand for health promotion, prevention and protection services and to make every contact count. As the HLP specialists, Pharmacy Complete have an award winning portfolio of training courses and resources to inspire and enable all those working in the pharmacy team and in other settings to develop their capabilities.
We also support pharmacy students with leadership development and public health development knowledge and skills to be HLP ready.
