Pharmacy Requirements - Wales

Thinking of locuming in 2023 in Wales? In order to get set up and book shifts with Clarity Locums, pharmacists will need to make sure they are fully compliant in the regions they wish to work in. Below is a list of the relevant documents necessary to work as a locum pharmacist in Wales:

  • Proof of ID: Passport
  • Additionally for Non UK or Non Irish locums - Right to Work Share Code (Access here)
  • DBS (Must be subscribed to the update service)
  • More info on the update service can be found here.
  • Professional Indemnity Insurance

NADEX Registration

NADEX registration is now to be completed via your NCSA (National Clinical Services Accreditation ) page on your learning dashboard at www.wcppe.org.uk. Once logged in to your account click on “learning dashboard”, then “NCSA”.

You will need to complete all of the “generic skills and competencies” on NCSA, and submit the Generic Skills and Competencies submission form to provide any service. Complete and submit a DBS check. (NWSSP will contact you once you submit a declaration form on NCSA for a service where DBS is required)

Complete the NADEX listing form on your NCSA page - without this you cannot access the Choose pharmacy platform to provide services. (You will need to await confirmation of your NADEX login before you can access Choose Pharmacy to provide CAS, DMR, EMS, EC, STTT and flu.)
