Job Description
Bank Clinical Pharmacist | Havant, Hampshire | Competitive hourly rates | Part time - Flexible Working
Spire Portsmouth Hospital has an exciting bank opportunity for a Clinical Pharmacist. This role is ideally suited to someone who is looking for the challenge of delivering a comprehensive pharmacy service within hospital settings.
Our pharmacists are not solely pharmacy based so you will have the opportunity to interact with patients across various departments to find out their pharmaceutical requirements, review medication history, current prescriptions, and relevant clinical data.
At Spire Healthcare, caring is our passion and our vision is to be recognised as a world-class healthcare business. We are committed to looking after people, both patients and colleagues. Here at Spire Portsmouth Hospital, we perform a wide range of surgery including orthopaedics. This role will involve working as part of a wider multi-disciplinary team both in outpatients and on the ward to rehabilitate patients and prepare for discharge.
Duties And Responsibilities
Spire Portsmouth is a great place to develop your skills, because we are always looking for our pharmacists to keep up to date with the latest developments in prescribing practice. We are regularly broadening the range of clinical services we offer, which brings opportunities for our pharmacists to advance their knowledge in treating different patient groups, conditions, and treatments.
