Liverpool Council is to look at how it manages responses to major healthcare changes amid a bid to consolidate pharmacy services in L8.
Residents and patients were delighted when NHS England confirmed it would not accept proposals by Rowlands Pharmacy to close its existing provision and merge it into one singular site on The Elms. As part of the application they had asked that no other pharmacy could open in its place.
Health chiefs said the consolidation of services were rejected as they felt Rowlands had not “considered the impact this application would have on the health inequalities of local residents.”
