Welcome to South West Yorkshire Partnership NHS Foundation Trust

The South West Yorkshire Partnership NHS Foundation Trust Pharmacy Service exist to proactively support staff, service users and carers in achieving safe and effective medicines management, optimising the use of medicines by providing a high quality and friendly service.

We do this by providing:

  • Accurate and independent information and education about medicines to other healthcare professionals, service users and carers
  • Clinical and dispensing activities to facilitate the management of medicines by service users within inpatient and community teams
  • Support to ensure that medicines management resources are used cost effectively within South West Yorkshire Partnership NHS Foundation Trust

We have an in house pharmacy with specialist pharmacists and technicians in Wakefield providing services to Wakefield, Pontefract, Halifax, Dewsbury, Barnsley and Huddersfield. In Dewsbury, Barnsley, Halifax and Huddersfield, specialist staff liaise with the local hospitals and community pharmacies and our own in house pharmacy.

General opening hours are Monday to Friday from 9am to 5pm. Staff across South West Yorkshire Partnership NHS Foundation Trust have access to on call pharmacy services outside of these hours.
