The story behind Numark’s
              Regulatory







              Health Check








                                                                                   success




               When Numark first launched the
               Regulatory Health Check service
               back in spring 2024, the goal was
               simple to help members feel confident,
               compliant, and inspection ready. Fast
               forward 18 months, and it’s safe to
               say that goal has been well and truly
               achieved. From pharmacy teams in
               Scarborough to Belfast, more than a
               hundred members have already taken
               advantage of the service, gaining
               peace of mind and sharper operational
               standards in the process.


               Setting the standard –
               The beginning (May 2024)

               When Kieran first introduced the
               Regulatory Health Check, his team’s
               mission was clear: to help pharmacies
               meet GPhC standards and NHS
               contract requirements, while providing
               genuine hands-on support.
               “Our assessors bring the GPhC                                                          It felt like we were getting help
               standards to life,” Kieran explained in
               the May 2024 launch interview.                                                            rather than being evaluated.
               “We spend quality time in the
               pharmacy, explain every finding
               clearly, and leave teams with a
               bespoke report and action plan they             From idea to impact –
               can actually use.”                              Members in action
               The service was born from a real                By summer 2024, the results were already
               member need. With unannounced                   showing. Pharmacies like CT Pharmacy in London
               inspections on the rise and public              were among the first to take part, and the
               reporting of results increasing,                experience quickly proved its worth.
               pharmacies wanted to feel prepared              “It felt like we were getting help rather than
               not panicked. The Health Check                  being evaluated,” said Superintendent Patrick
               was designed to bridge that gap,                Teh, who found the process both supportive
               providing members with a realistic              and insightful. The resulting report became, in
               mock inspection that ends in practical          his words, “a second Bible” for the pharmacy –
               advice, not just paperwork.
                                                               helping the team fine-tune compliance and boost
                                                               confidence ahead of inspection.
