3 weeks ago


Truro, United Kingdom Royal Cornwall Hospitals NHS Trust Full time

The Pharmacy Technical Services Department have a vacancy for a Band 2 Assistant Technical Officer to work within our unit. This post will involve supporting our specialist facility where you will assist in the preparation of injectable medicines of both a hazardous and non-hazardous nature. The post holder will be required to support the delivery of a variety of pharmaceutical products around the Royal Cornwall Hospital site and occasionally off site so a full, valid, manual driving license is essential to enable the successful applicant to drive the department vehicle.

These medicines must be appropriately labelled for individual patients with advice and instructions for storage and use. This will require moderate effort in a restrictive sitting or standing position, often for prolonged periods, whilst maintaining high levels of concentration and accuracy during preparation of injections, using isolator barrier technology.

Conduct all activities using a high degree of attention to detail ensuring that all work is compliant with local and national standards including Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) and be proactive in identifying improvement opportunities and more efficient ways of working.

Participate in assembly and labelling activities associated with non-sterile medicines

Support transport duties covering delivery of products to include hazardous and non-hazardous materials both internal to site and occasionally off site.

Assist with stores management and stock control activities.

Assist in cleaning and environmental monitoring duties associated with maintaining appropriate levels of cleanliness with the Pharmacy Technical Services Unit ensuring required maintenance activities are carried out.

Sustainability is integral to the Trust achieving the NHS Net Zero target. All staff are therefore actively encouraged and supported to implement new ways of working within their field of expertise.

Support the delivery of a range of pharmaceutical products both on and off site and provide assistance with archiving activities

Assist with stores and stock control duties

Demonstrate competence by maintaining own training and reading records.

Maintain concentration for prolonged periods whilst preparing doses of medicines.

Maintain the requirements of health and safety in the workplace ensuring the correct use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) the adherence to procedures and the use of approved practices relating to manual handling.
