Public Registers
Under the Pharmacy Act 2007, the PSI keeps and maintains registers of
pharmacists, retail pharmacy businesses (pharmacies) and pharmaceutical
assistants. These registers are available to the public online.
The
public registers are updated on a daily basis and the PSI takes every
care to ensure that the information on the public registers is accurate
and up-to-date. Please contact the PSI at registration@psi.ie
if you have difficulties using the public registers or you seek
verification of the information published on the public register.
Registrants
(pharmacists, pharmacy owners or pharmaceutical assistants) are obliged
to notify the PSI of any changes in their registration details which
need to be updated on the registers. Registrants can make certain changes to their registration details using the registrant login section of the website.
The PSI does not, and is not
permitted under the Act to, publish the home addresses or contact
details of registrants on the public registers, in the interests of the
security and privacy of those individuals.
The
PSI, in accordance with its registration with the Data Protection Commissioner, discloses
information held by it (such as contact details of pharmacists or
pharmacies) for the following main purposes:
- where disclosure is necessary in the interests of protecting public health and welfare
- where disclosure is necessary for the purposes of professional education and development
