Join the Pharmacy Team at King George Hospital and help deliver high-quality patient-centred care across Barking, Havering and Redbridge University Hospitals NHS Trust.
We are looking for a motivated and enthusiastic Pharmacy Technician registered with the General Pharmaceutical Council (GPhC) to provide technical support across dispensary and ward-based services. Working as an Accredited Checking Pharmacy Technician, you will undertake final accuracy checking, support medicines optimisation, complete medicines reconciliation and drug histories, assess patients’ own medicines, support discharge processes, and provide medication counselling.
You will work closely with pharmacists, nurses and other healthcare professionals, while contributing to service improvement projects, audits and staff development. This role offers the opportunity to use and develop a broad range of clinical and technical skills within a supportive and forward-thinking pharmacy department.
Applicants must hold recognised pharmacy technician qualifications, be an Accredited Checking Pharmacy Technician, and demonstrate excellent communication, organisational and teamwork skills.
You will also be required to work weekends and bank holiday shifts via a rota.
If you would like further details, contact Claire Boswell, Dispensary Manger: claire.boswell2@nhs.net or on 0208 970 8079.
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.
We’re an organisation that is getting better and better and our improvements are driven by a determination to deliver care we’re proud of and our patients are happy with.
They are benefitting from a new electronic patient record (we were the last acute trust in London to introduce one) and our maternity services have been rated good by the Care Quality Commission.
We operate from two main sites – KGH in Goodmayes and Queen’s Hospital in Romford. We have two busy emergency departments with more than 346,000 people visiting them last year. We’re campaigning to secure the £35m we need to transform the A&E at Queen’s and get rid of corridor care.
We’re proud of our regional Neurosciences Centre, Radiotherapy Centre and Hyper Acute Stroke Unit. We’re also part of the North East London Cancer Alliance.
We run a Women’s Health Hub in Ilford; an Ageing Well Centre in Hornchurch; and Community Diagnostic Centres (CDC) at Barking Community Hospital and at St George’s Health and Wellbeing Hub. These CDCs are open 12 hours a day, 7 days a week.
The majority of our 8,400 staff – who come from 146 different countries – live in the three diverse London boroughs we serve and are from black, Asian and minority ethnic groups. Many can work flexibly and more than 400 of them are on our Ofsted accredited apprenticeship programmes. We’re proud to be a London Living Wage employer.
