**The importance of your role.**

Exceptional patient-centred care is at the heart of everything we do and as a Pharmacy Dispenser you’ll be part of helping patients feel good. It’s everything from the clear advice and care you offer them, to the wide ranges of dispensing services we provide.

To provide fantastic patient care as a Pharmacy Dispenser you will work across the healthcare counter and the dispensary to where the patients' needs you most. This is a great opportunity to develop your Pharmacy career and make a difference to the lives of our patients.

**What you’ll be doing day to day.**

**Your duties will include**:

- Tailoring conversations with every customer to ensure they leave your pharmacy feeling informed and confident about their healthcare needs.
- Delivering the technical aspects of the dispensary whilst ensuring the safe supply of medicines e.g. ordering medicines, labelling, dispensing, endorsing and collection of prescriptions.

- If you are interested in further developing your professional career, we can support you towards achieving both competency and knowledge based NVQ Level 3 (QCF) qualification in Pharmacy Services to become eligible to register with the GPHC as a Pharmacy Technician. This could then lead to an Accuracy Checking Pharmacy Technician (ACPT) role. As you continue to develop your healthcare knowledge through these qualifications and roles, your pay and benefits will reflect this.
- This is just one of several routes your career could take you within Boots
