Pharmacy bodies announced in May this year that they had formed a cross-sector group to “refresh” discussions around changes to supervision in pharmacy.
Dr Hannbeck has stressed that remote supervision will not be the focal point of the new discussions, as the cross-sector group hopes to make the "pharmacist presence in the pharmacy more, not less, visible to patients".
So what does Dr Hannbeck hope to achieve through the current discussions?
C+D reporter Eliza Loukou interviewed her at the Pharmacy Show in Birmingham last month in a bid to address some pressing questions. Find out what Dr Hannbeck had to say by watching the video below or via this link.
Join C+D's next Big Debate on November 16, 7-8pm, to discuss how pharmacy supervision can be modernised without compromising patient safety.
