Pre-Registration Pharmacy Technician Apprentice

2 weeks ago


StocktononTees, United Kingdom North Tees & Hartlepool NHS Foundation Trust Full time

Job summary

We are seeking two Pre-registration Trainee Pharmacy Technicians to join us.

Pharmacy technicians are a vital part of the pharmacy team. They work under the supervision of the pharmacist to ensure the safe running of the pharmacy and make sure patients get the most from their medicines. The role will enable successful candidates to undertake the necessary training and development to register as a Pharmacy Technician with the General Pharmaceutical Council.

Our Pre-registration Pharmacy Technician Apprentices undertake a 2-year distance learning training programme with the University of East Anglia with lots of support from our dedicated and experienced training team. You will attend a virtual training to study for the coursework for your Certificate of Higher Education in Pharmacy Technician Practice.

To be eligible to apply for the Pre-registration Pharmacy Technician, you will need 4 GCSE's at grade C/4 or above including Maths, English and science (or a combined science award with one qualification at C/4 or above plus another GCSE). Maths and English Functional skills levels 2 can also be accepted. Pharmacy experience is not essential but would be desirable but a NVQ2 in pharmacy is not an alternative to the academic requirements above. Proof of the above qualifications will be requested at interview.

Main duties of the job

Career opportunities following qualification, and registration include, medicines management roles, aseptic preparation, staff training, clinical trials, procurement, and many more. Further training is available to help develop your career in some of these areas.

Our PTPTs support medicines supply and optimisation throughout the Trust. You will need to demonstrate that you are a team player, a proactive learner and are able to plan and organise your own workload. You need to be flexible in your approach to work and have good attention to detail. Excellent communication skills are a must and most importantly a professional attitude and patient centred approach.

About us

During your training you will be involved in supporting the efficient delivery of medicines including dispensing, stock control, aseptic production and quality control. This will be across our Pharmacy Departments at the University Hospital of North Tees, University Hospital of Hartlepool along with Stockton Quality Control Laboratory which is the specialist regional service for the North East and North Cumbria.

You will gain experience working on the hospital inpatient wards delivering pharmacy ward based services. You will take patient medication histories, assess patient's own drugs and educate patients on how optimise their medicines. As part of the programme you will gain the knowledge and skills required to final accuracy check dispensed medicines and products.
