Job Description

PREVIOUS APPLICANTS NEED NOT APPLY

A vacancy has arisen for experienced technicians with at least one year post registration experience to apply for this post which will be based at King George Hospital in Goodmayes.

Duties will include:

Participation in a ward based pharmacy service, assisting the clinical pharmacist by undertaking clinical duties e.g. PODS, drug history taking, medicines reconciliation, discharge counselling etc in line with the recent NPSA guidance.
To help develop, monitor and audit the clinical technician input on wards
To carry out regular, planned Controlled Drug checks on the wards according to guidelines and agreed procedures
To work as an Accredited Checking Technician in the dispensary, supervising technicians and assistants in the absence of the senior dispensary staff

You must be a qualified Pharmacy Technician, registered with the General Pharmaceutical Council.

You must be able to demonstrate good organisational and problem solving skills and you must also have accreditation for dispensary checking and ward-based, clinical activities.

Provide technical support and supervision to the dispensaries, and ward-based, clinical services. Provide training to junior staff and supervise pharmacy technicians, and pharmacy assistants, in the absence of the Pharmacy Technician Specialists and Team Managers.

Under the leadership of our Chair, Jacqui Smith and Matthew Trainer, our Chief Executive we provide care for the residents of three diverse London boroughs. More than half of our 7,500 strong workforce are from black, Asian and minority ethnic groups and most live in Barking and Dagenham, Havering and Redbridge. We also provide healthcare services to people in south west Essex, and specialist neurosciences services to the whole of the county.

Our services include all the major specialties of large acute hospitals, operating from two main sites - King George Hospital in Goodmayes and Queen’s Hospital in Romford. We also provide outpatient services at Brentwood Community Hospital, Barking Hospital, Loxford Polyclinic and Harold Wood Polyclinic.

As we recover from Covid-19, we’re proud to be leading the way in reducing the time our patients wait to get the treatment they need. The pandemic provided the drive for our teams to innovate and change.

We know we have more work to do to improve waiting times for urgent and emergency care, and this will be one of the many benefits of our closer collaboration with Barts Health. Working with them and with all our partners across north east London, we will find a sustainable solution to enhance patient care.

We are particularly proud of our regional Neurosciences Centre; Radiotherapy Centre; Hyper Acute Stroke Unit; and dedicated breast care service at King George Hospital. We’re also pleased to be part of the NEL Cancer Alliance.
