Main rotational duties include
- Labelling and dispensing medicines for prescriptions in our main pharmacy and satellite outpatient pharmacy. There will also be a requirement to dispense more complex medicines for our specialist clinics areas such as the Sexual Health clinic and external hospices. A future development will see the department increasing dispensing at ward level through use of our automated medicines cabinets to help expedite discharge.
- Replenish stock for the automated medicines cabinets at ward level using keyboard skills to obtain reports and update records of new items placed in the cabinet.
- Entering data onto computer systems such as the prescription tracking system, associated programs to update our robot and following an check of stock at ward level (topping-up)
- Receive stock from wholesalers, checking medicines received against our orders and working to store medicines safely within the department.
- There will also be a requirement to assist the wider pharmacy team with any audits to ensure the safe and accurate storage of medicines outside of the department comply with Pharmacy and CQC standards.

Applicants must be keen to learn, be hardworking and able to work under pressure during busy periods.

A flexible approach to the above duties is required, together with good communication and interpersonal skills, an ability to prioritise your workload when working on your own or part of the team. Show initiative and represent pharmacy when working with other healthcare professionals.
