Primary Care Network
Each of the PCN areas in West Yorkshire has a community pharmacist working to represent the interests of ALL community pharmacies within the PCN area. Their role is to attend meetings and to share and gather feedback with their pharmacy colleagues.
PCN Community Pharmacy Leads should also see our dedicated PCN Lead Resource Centre page: https://www.cpwy.org/pharmacy-contracts-services/primary-care-network/primary-care-network-lead-pcn-lead-resource-centre/.
