Seeking a self-motivated, passionate and resilient clinical pharmacist to join our team of critical care pharmacists and technicians.
In 2022 we expanded our team to provide a 7-day clinical service to the Integrated Critical Care Unit (ICCU). This has been extremely well received by the multidisciplinary team and has made a significant impact to patient care.
An independent prescribing qualification is desirable but there is the opportunity and support to undertake the course if not already completed.
If desired there will be opportunities to undertake further postgraduate qualifications, supported by our pharmacy education and training team.
The RWT Pharmacy Team are proud winners of the Trust's Clinical Team of the Year Award 2024, and our overwhelmingly positive staff survey results speak for themselves.
What You Will Gain From The Role
- Experience working in a large critical care unit treating patients from a wide range of specialities, including cardiothoracic surgery.
- Experience working with the team to maintain shared oversight and governance of other clinical areas in the Anaesthesia, Perioperative, Pain Medicine and ICCU Group, including theatres.
- Support and mentorship from a highly experienced Principal Pharmacist for critical care.
- Working within a team of friendly, motivated and supportive pharmacists and pharmacy technicians.
