The Pharmaceutical Needs Assessment (PNA) is a statutory document required to be produced by every local authority’s Health and Wellbeing Boards (HWB) every three years. The PNA assesses the pharmacy needs of the local population and provides a framework to enable the strategic development and commissioning of community pharmacy services to help meet the needs of the local individual population.
The London Boroughs of Barking and Dagenham (LBBD), Havering (LBH)
and Redbridge (LBR) awarded the contract for the production of three PNA’s to PHAST CIC (one for each borough) in May 2017
The Board will be asked to agree the final completed PNA.
