1 month ago

Crediton, Devon, United Kingdom Royal Devon and Exeter NHS Foundation Trust Full time

Role Overview

Are you interested in joining a progressive Pharmacy division within our NHS Community Services team?

Do you aspire to collaborate with a diverse group of professionals to deliver a cohesive Pharmacy service to patients in the community?

We are excited to announce a new opportunity for a practical and clinically oriented Medicines Management Technician to become part of our esteemed Urgent Community Response Team.

Position Details

For comprehensive information regarding the Job Description and Responsibilities, please refer to the link provided below.

Key Responsibilities:

This community-focused team offers short-term assistance to individuals in their homes who require urgent support to maintain their well-being. Patients may have recently transitioned from a hospital stay or been referred to our team for timely interventions to avert hospital admissions. The specialized knowledge of a pharmacy technician will significantly enhance the skill set of our current UCR team, which includes occupational therapists, physiotherapists, nurses, community matrons, support workers, therapy assistants, administrators, and in some cases, GPs and paramedics.

Engage in an informal pre-interview discussion with us if you believe this could be the right career transition for you.

This role is dynamic and rewarding, involving patient interaction and responsibilities such as providing patient education, supporting medication adherence, and advising clinical interventions to GP and PCN pharmacy colleagues to enhance patient care. You will deliver a medicines reconciliation service to new patients referred to the UCR teams and assist with the transcription of MAR charts when medication administration is required.

You will be integrated into the broader network of clinical pharmacy teams within the Community Services division and will receive professional support from a community services pharmacist.

Strong communication skills are essential, as is a passion for resolving medication-related inquiries. You will be dedicated to empowering patients to optimize their medication use, providing safe and timely adherence advice, and ensuring effective communication with relevant parties. Flexibility, organization, and the ability to adapt to the evolving needs of patients while prioritizing workload are crucial.

You will engage in mutual mentoring, training, and support with colleagues in the UCR teams and the wider pharmacy team. This position offers excellent opportunities for personal growth for GPhC registered medicines management technicians from any sector.

We are committed to supporting your career advancement and personal development in all aspects of this role, including training on the Trust electronic patient record system.

Working Hours:

Interview Date: To be confirmed

For further information or an informal discussion, please reach out to the Community Services Pharmacy Manager.

As an inclusive employer, the Royal Devon values diversity and is dedicated to fostering a culture of inclusivity where everyone can thrive and realize their full potential.

Preference will be given to staff with 'Priority' and 'At Risk' status, including NHS At Risk staff throughout the region.

Salary is just one aspect of the financial benefits.

You will have access to a wide range of staff discounts on shopping, fitness, and leisure activities, as well as options to spread the cost of technology and home appliance purchases from major retailers. Additional benefits include:

  • National discount services such as the Blue Light Card and Health Service Discounts.
