He participates in clinical audits and contributes to Happy Pharmacy’s quality assurance processes, keeping his knowledge up to date with the latest clinical guidelines, alerts, and safety notices.

Collaborative Working

He works closely with pharmacy technicians and dispensers to resolve clinical queries and ensure safe medication supply. When necessary, Nigel liaises with GPs, NHS services, or specialist clinicians to coordinate care beyond the pharmacy’s scope. He also plays a key role in developing and implementing new clinical services, helping Happy Pharmacy expand and innovate in response to patient needs.

Education & Development

Committed to excellence, Nigel actively pursues Continuing Professional Development (CPD) to maintain and enhance his clinical skills and prescribing competence. He undertakes regular training on condition-specific treatments, digital consultation best practices, prescribing safety, and regulatory updates. Nigel also engages in reflective practice, peer discussions, and case reviews, embodying Happy Pharmacy’s commitment to safe, effective, and accountable patient care.
