Pharmacies are a key partner in plans to address the prevention of ill health which can only be achieved through integrated working. Pharmacies are often placed in the very heart of communities close to where Hartlepool people live, work and shop, and provide easy access to services. Pharmacies increasingly support people in making healthier lifestyle choices and advise on and provide a range of treatments as well as signposting to other services. This Pharmaceutical Needs Assessment provides the opportunity for a basis on which NHS England decisions on the location and shape of local pharmaceutical services can be made. It outlines the varying needs of our population across Hartlepool both in terms of pharmacy services currently available and considering needs for the future. This draft made available for consultation is an important part of ensuring the PNA is developed through a wide consultation process with a range of professionals, service users and the public; to understand the views of stakeholders on the current availability and provision of pharmaceutical services locally and makes recommendations to inform decision-making. It is vital that the planning of pharmaceutical services provision should be considered alongside other health and social services available. The Health and Wellbeing Board has an overview of this based on the Joint Strategic Needs Assessment. The Health and Wellbeing Board, therefore, publishes this first draft document according to our statutory duty under the Health and Social Care Act 2012. It is hoped that you find it a useful basis for planning, development and commissioning of pharmaceutical services according to the needs of the people of Hartlepool.
