Do you want to be at the forefront of transforming clinical pharmacy? Do you want to work with a dynamic, supportive and friendly team? We are currently transforming our clinical pharmacy service across NHS Fife, as an integrated pharmacy service across hospital, primary care and specialist teams. The aim is to join up care for our patients across transitions of care and ensure the best outcomes for patients with their medicines. An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced pharmacy technician registered with the GPhC with proven post qualification experience to join our integrated pharmacy team, working across Fife as part of the mental health clinical pharmacy team. You will be based across mental health – this will involve working across a range of hospital sites and settings including General Adult Psychiatry (GAP), Older Adult Psychiatry (OAP), Rehabilitation, Forensic, Learning Disability, ADHD and Intensive Care Psychiatry patients. You will undertake a key role in continuing the provision of a safe, effective pharmacy service to all mental health settings which will support a smooth transition of care over multiple sites. This role will involve travelling across Fife to cover other mental health hospitals out with your base locations. You will also have sessions to enable you to maintain your checking qualification. You must be able to work independently or as part of the pharmacy team and wider multidisciplinary team. You will be an excellent communicator who has the ability to build good relationships with colleagues and other healthcare professionals. You should have experience of working in a clinical environment and managing staff. A requirement of this post is to become a member of the Protection of Vulnerable Groups (PVG) Scheme prior to appointment.
