What might it look like to work here?
Stand by, we'll show you...
Do you enjoy working with people, dealing with a variety of challenges plus delivering actual benefits to make a true difference? This is an exciting opportunity for a motivated Pharmacist to join our Integrated Pharmacy workforce providing a service to a number of our PCNs within Wirral.
Each PCN is a group of GP practices working together to provide joined up services to support their patients to live happier, healthier lives. You will join an experienced and dynamic team that includes GPs, Nurses, Health & Wellbeing Coaches, Care Coordinators, Social Prescribers & Physiotherapists to provide clinical pharmacy services to our local population.
We have embraced collaboration to achieve a system wide overview of the patients’ medicines journey. This helps you identify how processes can be improved when patients move between care settings and become part of the system wide pharmacy family. You will be supported to complete the CPPE pathway.
You will support these PCNs with the delivery of safe, effective systems for medicines optimisation, reducing waste and maximising patient outcomes through structured medication review.
You will contribute to new ways of working and using the skills that your role can bring to evolving PCN services.
You will be responsible for promoting good practice in line with clinical and operational guidelines and will clinically support the pharmacy technicians with medicines reconciliation post discharge and other medicines projects.
On a day-to-day basis you will spend time within the PCN hubs and in GP practices to answer clinical queries from patients, local GPs and clinicians, trusts and other services such as care homes. You will be supported to build strong relationships with community pharmacy and trust pharmacy colleagues.
Ultimately your role will be to support our patients to help them get the most out of their medicines and to play an active part in their own healthcare decisions.
All new colleagues can expect to receive a warm and friendly Wirral welcome from the very first time they make contact with us. We are described as “competent and caring staff” by our patients. Wirral University Teaching Hospital NHS Foundation Trust is situated on The Wirral peninsula which has a stunning coastline and beautiful countryside surroundings, with great activities for its residents. We are one of the largest and busiest acute Trusts in the North West of England, comprising of the Wirral’s only Emergency Department. We provide a high quality range of acute care services and employ over 6,000 staff, who serve a population of approximately 400,000 people across Wirral, Ellesmere Port, Neston, North Wales and the wider North West footprint. We have approximately 855 beds trust-wide and our financial turnover is in excess of £337m. The Wirral is easily accessible with excellent transport links including motorway, train, bus or ferry and within easy reach to the major cities of Liverpool, Chester and Manchester as well as neighbouring North Wales.
