Job overview
Have you got the enthusiasm and passion to take the next step in your career in an acute hospital pharmacy department?
We are looking for qualified, registered pharmacy technicians or those due to qualify this year, who wish to develop clinically in a patient focused role with opportunity to work within dispensaries (oncology, outpatients and in-patients) and at ward level at Colchester Hospital.
For Band 5 you will have an Accredited Checking Technician qualification and Medicines Reconciliation (or started) and relevant experience. If these are not held you will start in a Band 4 developmental role while you are supported in completing the required skills and competencies (length of development will be determined on past experience and completion of appropriate competencies). Previous experience, qualification and accreditations will be considered.
You will be supported in any relevant pharmacy courses including Medicines Management, leadership and other professional personal developmental training.
To provide a high quality service to our patients you will be a team player with the ability to work flexibly, react positively to change and know the limitations of the role. You will communicate effectively with patients, carers and the multi-disciplinary team. You must be able to follow written procedures, work under supervision and complete tasks accurately to set deadlines.
We welcome calls to find out more information. Tours of the department available upon request.
Main duties of the job
As part of your role you will:
Participate in providing supervision and training to other pharmacy department colleagues. Provide dispensing, counselling and near patient services in various dispensaries including the inpatient, oncology and outpatient dispensaries. Be an Accredited Checking Technician undertaking checking duties within the dispensary and recording dispensing errors using the right first time error reporting system. Work clinically on a rotational basis at ward level, providing a patient centred approach to medicines management and taking responsibility for the pharmaceutical care of patients. Minimise medicines-associated risk and ensure medication safety in accordance with local and national guidance. Proactively support senior pharmacy colleagues to ensure that all relevant dispensary or ward issues are highlighted to all appropriate departmental staff. Be given the opportunity to develop your leadership skills by undertaking a team leader roleAbout our Pharmacy Service
