Pharmaceutical Needs Assessment 2022 to 2025
The Pharmaceutical Needs Assessment (PNA) is a document. It describes how and where pharmacies in Hull provide their service. It includes any gaps in how services are provided in the future.
The document is used by NHS England to make decisions about whether to allow new pharmacies to open up in Hull. It's also to approve changes to current pharmacies in Hull. It should be used by commissioners of services. This is alongside the Joint Strategic Needs Assessment (JSNA).
This is a statutory requirement of the Health and Wellbeing Board. The assessment must be updated every 3 years. The latest version is for the period 2022 to 2025.
Supplementary Statements 2022 to 2025
A Supplementary Statement records changes to the provision of pharmacy services.
Supplementary Statements are issued for opening or closure of pharmacies. They can also be issued when there are Pharmaceutical Needs Assessment minor changes. The changes would be relevant for granting of applications.
Once issued, a supplementary statement becomes part of the PNA. It will be published on this webpage.
