Compliance & Safeguarding

Regulated. Verified. Trusted.

Every courier, every delivery, every protocol — built to the standards your pharmacy demands and the regulators require.

Enhanced DBS Checks

Every courier holds a current Enhanced DBS certificate.

All MediXpress couriers are subject to Enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) checks before they handle any pharmacy deliveries. We maintain a live register of all certificates and conduct annual re-checks. You will never receive a delivery from an unchecked courier.

  • Enhanced DBS check completed before first delivery
  • Annual re-check policy for all active couriers
  • Live certificate register maintained by operations team
  • Certificates available for inspection on request

GPhC Compliant Protocols

Delivery procedures aligned with GPhC standards.

Our delivery procedures are developed in alignment with General Pharmaceutical Council (GPhC) standards for the safe supply and transport of medicines. This includes controlled drugs, temperature-sensitive products, and standard dispensed items.

  • Procedures aligned with GPhC safe supply standards
  • Controlled drug handling under Schedule 2–5 protocols
  • Cold-chain transport compliant with MHRA guidance
  • Regular protocol review against GPhC updates

GDPR Secure Data Handling

Patient data handled under strict GDPR protocols.

Delivery manifests, patient addresses, and any associated health information are handled under our GDPR-compliant data processing framework. No patient data is retained beyond the required audit period, and all data in transit is encrypted.

  • GDPR-compliant data processing framework
  • Patient data encrypted in transit
  • Retention policy aligned with NHS/pharmacy audit requirements
  • Data processing agreement available for pharmacy partners

Secure Controlled Drug Returns

Full returns cycle management for controlled drugs.

When a controlled drug delivery cannot be completed — due to patient refusal, absence, or other reasons — MediXpress manages the full returns cycle with documented chain-of-custody at every step, ensuring your dispensary CD register remains accurate and auditable.

  • Documented returns process for all refused CDs
  • Signed returns record provided to dispensary
  • Secure transit for returned controlled drugs
  • Same-day returns to dispensary where operationally possible
