Welcome to the NHS Highland Community Pharmacy Services website!
On the left side of the screen, you will see a list of categories, providing all relevant and up to date information regarding community pharmacy services in NHS Highland.
NHS Highland Community Pharmacy Services support a diverse population across one of the most geographically varied health board areas in Scotland. Covering both remote and rural communities, including islands and sparsely populated regions, as well as more urban centres such as Inverness, community pharmacies play a vital role in ensuring equitable access to healthcare. Through close partnership with independent contractor pharmacies, the service enables delivery of essential and enhanced care, helping to meet the needs of local populations while addressing the unique challenges associated with distance, accessibility, and population distribution.
This website has been developed by the NHS Highland Community Pharmacy Services team. We would like this website to be used as a hub for all things Community Pharmacy. If there is something that you think would be helpful to add, please email us on nhsh.cpsoffice@nhs.scot.
