You must first contact our Strategy, Planning and Performance department to check on the availability of new pharmacy contracts if you are intending to establish a pharmacy in the Hutt Valley. The contact details are below.
The DHB has a strategy called Future Pharmacist Services to ensure the provision of pharmacy services in the Hutt Valley fulfils the criteria for equity and population needs. Click here to view Future Pharmacist Services as a PDF in your browser.
As part of our strategy, we want to be more considered and thoughtful about issuing new contracts for pharmacies.
Pharmacists wanting to establish a pharmacy will need to make an application on the approved form.
Copies of the application form are included in the Pharmacy Contracting Policy.
We will assess the merits of the application against the criteria in our policy, including its alignment with our Future Pharmacist Services strategy.
