Ireland – Pharmacy services – Invitation to Tender for the: Provision of a Late Night Community Pharmacy Service to Support Penile Rehabilitation and Prostate Cancer Survivorship for St James’s Hospital

Penile rehabilitation is a recognised component of post‑treatment survivorship care and includes the use of oral agents, refrigerated topical therapies such as Vitaros® and Invicorp®, and intracavernosal injection treatments. Successful rehabilitation relies on timely and reliable access to medication, appropriate cold‑chain storage where required, patient education, discretion, and access outside standard working hours. This proposal outlines the use of a late‑night community pharmacy, located within 1–2 km of St James’s Hospital, to deliver a specialist, discreet and accessible dispensing and support service for men prescribed penile rehabilitation therapies as part of their prostate cancer survivorship pathway. The service will operate in close collaboration with St James’s Hospital Urology, Oncology and Survivorship teams to ensure safe prescribing, continuity of care and clear escalation pathways.
