• Standard operating procedures in the dispensary had been reviewed and updated to include monitoring of uncollected dispensed medication.
• The practice had implemented a system to monitor and track blank prescriptions on receipt into the practice in accordance with NHS Protect Security of Prescriptions Guidance 2013.

• The practice maintained a complete record of the immunity status of clinical staff as specified in the national Green Book (immunisations against infectious disease) guidance for healthcare staff.
