A new and innovative approach to healthcare…We aim to be one of the UK’s largest home healthcare providers, transforming healthcare with pharmaceutical and clinical services that put patients and their families first.
The goal is to provide our patients with a range of innovative clinical services from the comfort of their home and offer them, and their carers, an extensive support network.
Our approach is simple, we want to empower patients with good quality healthcare, in order to continue to deliver high quality service. We rely heavily on the involvement of patients, carers, healthcare professionals and commissioners. We frequently collect patient and customer feedback through surveys and we use this to monitor and continuously improve all aspects of our service delivery.
First Call Pharmacy has one core principle: our patients come first.
Keeping in mind with ‘the patient comes first’ philosophy, we have set about challenging the accepted norms, by adopting new technologies and innovative ways of thinking to develop a service which puts the patient at the forefront of everything we do at First Call Pharmacy.
Each and every member of our team from our clinical pharmacist to our drivers shares our patient focus and is dedicated to delivering the best possible care.
We do not operate in isolation but rather aim to engage with the broader team comprising of families, GPs, community service providers, hospital staff, local charities and others. The patient is at the heart of this team, but we do not see them as a mere passive member; rather they are an integral part of the team and take responsibility of their treatment. Aiming to empower our patient with their healthcare to give them confidence and positivity to make their treatment a success.
