katgod Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Received a letter today saying permission granted for this, under regulation 13(1)(b) of the NHS (Pharmacy svs ) Regs 2005. Disappointed , but happy that needle and syringe exchange services are not being commissioned by the pct. from a quick review seems like the dye was set following a review in 2001.

katgod Posted November 27, 2012 Author Share Posted November 27, 2012 Interestingly, despite objections from 3 local pharmacy businesses, dame tessa, the lib dems with a petition of 1,083 people, LINK southwArk with a further 31 representations including the Bara Association (local tenants),Gumboots after school club, Gumboots nursery and others, it still got approved. Local democracy in action. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/27004-dmc-pharmacy/#findComment-595709 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkey Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Will be interesting to see how this pharmacy is run given chaos at the medical practice. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/27004-dmc-pharmacy/#findComment-595735 Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Barber Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 I think they now need to make a planning application.So hopefully another chance to object then.

LadyDeliah Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 What's wrong with having a pharmacy in the surgery? It would make life simpler for people who don't have much spare time.

Tarot Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 If you had a million pound mansion in Dulwich, you would want to follow every avenue to make money out of your very lucrative medical centre, and the upkeep of your many property developments.The surgery already looks like a fairground with its flu jab banners.Money could have been spent on new computers and trained operators, and a lift installed for people who cannot manage the stairs. and maybe a cleaner with copius supplies of disinfectants and air sprays, a pharmacy would be too much for the confused staff.

James Barber Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Hi LadyDeliah,I think the neighbours are miffed at the idea of a pharmacy - a shop by another name - opening close to them for 100hours a week with all the deliveries, visitors, extra parking pressure. Espeically when a nuber of existing pharmacies within 500m located on existing shopping streets. To gain pharmacy permission to open 100hours pw they've also included a needle exchange. The iste is next ot a large nursery and the parents of children are concerned.We don't need another needles exchange in the area when a number already exist.Would you like a new shop next door open for 100hours a week?

Great service there, but another Multi-national with 100's branches.Tarot:-Where would they put a lift. ?? Lift not required as appointments can be made in the downstairs surgeries. I bet if they wanted to open a tea & cakes shop with 'Buggie Park' there would be no objection.But anything usefull gets the big No No.Fox.

LondonMix Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Sorry but saying we need another pharmacy because the nearest one (who in your own words provides good service) is a chain is rediculous. It makes absolutely no sense. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/27004-dmc-pharmacy/#findComment-597119 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chillaxed Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 I agree London Mix.As is comparing the opening of a pharmacy and needle exchange with the opening of a cake shop for (I presume from the buggy reference) young parents.

DulwichFox Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 I'm not saying I need another Pharmacy. I use LLoyds. I used it today. James was seemed to suggest protecting local businesses. Well LLoyds is not a local business. It is a Multi- national. I do not constantly think just about myself, but am concerned about those less mobile. The point I was making was that people are saying We do not need another Pharmmacy Well we do not need another Mummy Club Tea Shop.... but no one would complain if yet anotherone opened at DMC.

dulwichtoo Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 DMC is rubbish only really useful for the unemployed and the retired like most of the NHS these days.
