There will also be opportunities to carry out medication reviews in a range of settings including telephone, GP practices, or patients' own homes. You will also undertake prescribing audits and medication cost efficiency projects within this role.

You will work closely with Pharmacists, Pharmacy Technicians, Support Workers, and GP Practice clinicians. Training and support will be provided.
