A Pharmaceutical Needs Assessment (PNA) records the need for pharmaceutical services within an area. It sets out:
- a statement of the pharmaceutical services which are currently provided, and when and where the services are available
- details of planned or likely changes which may affect the future provision of pharmaceutical services
- any current or future gaps in pharmaceutical services, taking into account the pharmaceutical needs of the population
The Health and Wellbeing board in Harrow approved the PNA for 2022-25 in November 2022. This is a statutory responsibility set out under the National Health Service (Pharmaceutical Services and Local Pharmaceutical Services) Regulations 2013 (SI 2013 No. 349) and amended in 2014 (SI 2014 No. 417).
