Supply of Medicines & Controlled Drugs and Pharmacy Supply.

Description

Supply of Medicines/drugs and/or Pharmacy Services to North East Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust (NEAS). (Supply within the North East of England). NEAS operates within the NHS as a provider of 999 emergency (blue light) and Patient Transport Services (PTS). Since 2013 the Trust has been successfully delivering NHS 111 services for the region, and has been able to demonstrate how this service can run alongside the provision of the 999 service to provide a seamless access point for patients. The Trust covers an area of almost 3,500 square miles covering the areas of Northumberland, Tyne & Wear, County Durham, Darlington and Teesside. It employs approximately 3,000 staff and provides 24 hour emergency, rapid response and healthcare services to a population of more than 2.7 million people. Front line services are delivered from 61 stations across the North East region. As part of our services, NEAS frontline crews require access to medicines and drugs as part of their emergency care/treatment to patients. Supply of the required medicines/drugs and pharmacy services is via an existing contract up to 31st March 2025. The purpose of this PIN notice is to engage with and determine the maturity of the market within the North East region to either provide medicine/drug supply and/or pharmacy services. This will inform NEAS of the potential need to bring the services in-house (with direct bulk medicine/drug supply the remaining requirement from the market)
