15. Evaluation aims Is there better uptake and delivery of services in HLPs compared to baseline (i.e. before being an HLP or against other non-HLP pharmacies)? Does geography and demography impact on HLP performance? What is the effect of HLP services on public-reported experiences? What are the benefits of HLP for public, commissioner, contractor, employees? Is each individual service delivered through HLP cost-effective?

25. COST EFFECTIVENESS

26. Cost effectiveness Contractor survey gives rich insight into how PH services are delivered Evaluation has affirmed important role of non-pharmacist staff in delivery Clear evidence that pharmacy staff are engaged and enthused by opportunities to make a difference; potential to spill over to better service outcomes Stop smoking services delivered by non-pharmacist staff perform at least as well as pharmacists – Service can be delivered more effectively i.e. making best use of each staff member’s skills – And more cost effectively i.e. pharmacist’s time has a higher business cost – Academic evidence shows that stop smoking services are cost effective Making optimal use of each staff member’s time, without necessarily risking ability to generate positive health outcomes, indicates the potential of service delivery in the HLP context

27. PUBLIC REPORTED EXPERIENCES

28. Public satisfaction (n = 1034)

29. Location where service users would have sought help/advice had this service not been available in the pharmacy (n = 1034)

30. Number of service users referred to an additional service in the pharmacy (n = 1034) There were 683 referrals/recommendations into other services offered by pharmacy.

31. Commissioners’ views “Becoming an HLP will display to commissioners pharmacy’s commitment to delivering cost effective and high quality services” [Birmingham tPCT and Solihull] “Future commissioning can be targeted and offered to those pharmacies that we know will deliver. So this has become a great organisational tool to target commissioning more cost effectively” [Portsmouth] “Public health commissioners see the HLP initiative in a very positive manner, public health teams are now keen to involve community pharmacies and in particular the HLPs in their service developments. They have volunteered to give on-going training to HLCs re information and signposting” [Dudley]

32. WHAT MADE THE DIFFERENCE?
