As an ACT Pharmacy Technician at our NHS hospital in Bristol, you'll play an essential role in supporting the pharmacy team and ensuring patient safety. Your day will typically look like this:

Morning Start (9:00 AM):

You'll begin your shift by reviewing the medication orders and prescriptions that have been submitted overnight. You'll ensure that all necessary items are ready for dispensing and that any potential issues are flagged for review.

Mid-Morning:

After ensuring the prescription orders are processed accurately, you will be involved in managing stock levels. You'll check medication inventories and ensure that essential medicines are well-stocked and stored safely in line with NHS standards.

Late Morning:

You will be dispensing medications to patients and preparing them for collection or delivery. This requires a high level of attention to detail to ensure that every prescription is filled accurately and appropriately.
