Clinical Pharmacist

·
Full time
Location: Swansea
· ·
We have an exciting opportunity for a motivated and enthusiastic clinical pharmacist to join our patient-focused and progressive Pharmacy Team at Singleton Hospital. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to provide a patient-orientated pharmacy service to our wards primarily, but will also be expected to work within a pharmacist-led clinic setting.

Main duties of the job

Working alongside clinical colleagues you will be integrated into the multidisciplinary team to support all the pharmaceutical needs of the various specialties. Having the Independent Prescribing qualification is therefore desirable for this post. However, support and mentoring will be provided to the successful candidate by team members to ensure that you fulfil your potential, and an opportunity to undertake and develop an independent prescribing role will be possible. The post-holder would also participate in Clinical Pharmacy dispensary duties in our automated dispensary.

Singleton hospital provides a range of specialties including Surgery, Neonatology, Oncology, Haematology, HIV and Hepatitis C, in addition to various Medical Outpatient clinics. This will allow the development of deeper knowledge, expertise, clinical and non-clinical skills under the direction of our experienced lead practitioners.

Our team endeavours to provide a comprehensive, highly skilled service to clinical areas. This approach contributes to an improvement in the quality of prescribing and clinical care for the patient.

We are seeking a friendly, enthusiastic, motivated and talented pharmacist to join our team. You will have excellent interpersonal and communication skills combined with good time management and organisational skills.

Experience of tutoring the clinical diploma and pre-registration/trainee pharmacists will be welcome but is not essential.

We believe staff are our best asset and we want you to be happy and confident about starting your career here in Swansea Bay University Health Board.

You might be a nurse or doctor, maybe you specialise in a health science/therapy or can offer skills in one of our support services - we have a job for you.

There are also apprenticeships, work placements and volunteering roles available.

We are an inclusive employer and welcome applications from everyone whatever their sex, religion or belief, race, age, sexual orientation, gender identity, or whether they are pregnant or have recently been on maternity leave, married or are in a civil partnership or whether they are disabled.
