Pharmacy Technician Specialist

The successful candidate will work closely with the specialist clinical pharmacists and multidisciplinary team to identify patients who have specific medicine management needs and plan to resolve these during their stay. You will promote rehabilitation and independence of patients, by supporting self-administration of medicines and providing medicines information and advice, helping to ensure medicines are used effectively, and improving awareness of medicines and their side effects. You will also support effective planning and organisation of medicines for discharge to enable a seamless transfer of care by liaising with appropriate healthcare professionals both within and outside the Trust.

The ideal candidate will have a flexible approach to needs of the service and have a strong teamwork ethic. They must be well organised and able to prioritise their own work, have good communication skills and be confident working independently, and as a fully integrated member of the multidisciplinary team. This role requires a strong sense of accountability, accompanied by the ability to work under pressure at times.
