Located on the Royal Victoria Infirmary (RVI) site, the RVI Pharmacy Stores and Distribution Centre (PDC) serves as a central receiving, storage and distribution point for pharmaceutical goods for the RVI. It is also the dispatch point for goods supplied to other Trust sites and outside healthcare organisations. The Freeman Hospital is supported by a large on-store Pharmacy Store.
Our pharmacy technicians and assistants visit the wards and departments on a scheduled basis and co-ordinate the ordering and supply of stock pharmaceutical items to all wards and departments.
Pharmaceutical deliveries from local wholesalers and drug companies are received between the hours:
Monday to Friday 8:30am – 5:00pm
Saturday 9:00am – 12:00noon
To place orders, please contact the Pharmacy Procurement Office (healthcare organisations only)
Please note: we do not provide a service to individual patients.
