Description

Te Whatu Ora BOP provides pharmacy services to inpatients within Tauranga and Whakatāne Hospitals.

We do not dispense outpatient prescriptions except when completing a course of hospital-funded medications on discharge.

We support hospital staff by providing the following inpatient pharmacy services:

  • Medicine supply
  • Medicines information for hospital staff and patients
  • Patient information on discharge

Our pharmacists regularly visit the inpatient wards to provide medication reviews, medicine management services and advice. Generally, we only dispense to inpatients at Tauranga and Whakatāne Hospitals.

We do not dispense outpatient prescriptions, except for a restricted range of medicines that are not normally available from a community pharmacy.
