Dispensers

Our very busy dispensary is run by a team of 10 dispensers across Wotton and Frampton. They all have an NVQ Pharmacy Services Level 2 qualification. They manage the processing of repeat and acute prescriptions which involves a continuous cycle of ordering drugs, receiving and checking the orders and then dispensing to the patient. They dispense for approx. 7,500 patients which is just under our list size.
