     Raising the bar
              How McAreavey Pharmacy
              took the lead on
              Regulatory readiness.
               Why preparation matters
               more than ever
               With the Professional Standards
               Authority (PSA) recently publishing
               its annual performance review of the
               Pharmaceutical Society of Northern
               Ireland (PSNI), the message for
               pharmacies is clear: expectations are
               rising. The review, covering January to
               December 2024, found that the PSNI
               met just 11 out of 18 Standards of
               Good Regulation highlighting areas
               where improvement is needed, and
               scrutiny is likely to follow.
               For McAreavey Pharmacy, this
               provided the perfect motivation to
               take proactive steps and Numark’s
               Regulatory Health Check was just the
               support they needed.
                                                            A recommendation that made
                                                            all the difference
                                                            Pharmacist Orfhlaith McAreavey was
                                                            already aware that an inspection
                                                            might be on the horizon.
                                                            “I was telling my Numark rep Maud Orr
                                                            that I was probably due an inspection
                                                            and wanted it to go well. She
                                                            recommended the Regulatory Health
                                                            Check and honestly, it was fantastic.”
