Pharmaceutical Needs Assessment

08/08/2018 By

From 1 April 2013 the Wiltshire Health and Wellbeing Board became responsible for the development and publication of the Pharmaceutical Needs Assessment (PNA), a statement of the needs for community pharmaceutical services of the population in its area.

There are a number of different areas within a PNA which a health and wellbeing board should consider which include but are not limited to, the demography of the area, different needs within localities, whether there is sufficient choice with regard to obtaining pharmaceutical services and likely future needs. Ultimately a PNA should enable NHS England to commission pharmaceutical services that meet the diverse pharmaceutical needs of people within a health and wellbeing board’s area. In 2017/18 the most recent PNA was developed which will take affect on the 1st of April 2018.
