This strategy aims to maximise engagement with pharmacy students through university and college partnerships, support the rollout of protected learning time standards, and advance the Pharmacy Independent Prescribing strategy. The role also involves identifying and supporting Designated Prescribing Practitioners (DPPs), introducing Consultant Pharmacist posts, and performing gap analyses to understand and articulate the department's needs We are a large and friendly team at University Hospitals Coventry and Warwickshire NHS Trust (UHCW) operating from University Hospital, Coventry and Hospital of St Cross in Rugby. Our large Acute Teaching Hospital has almost 1400 beds and is located in a PFI hospital which opened in 2006, situated just off the junction of the M6 and M69. We are a major trauma centre and tertiary and specialist referral centre for many specialities including Neurosciences and Stroke, Oncology, Haematology, Paediatrics, Cardiothoracic, Renal Medicine and Renal Transplant. We are also a large clinical trials centre with over 140 active trials currently recruited to. In 2018 we fully automated all our medication storage on wards , this was the first part of our move towards our longer term automation strategy. The next phase is to automate our main dispensary ready for the new Trust EPR system.

As a medication wholesaler we also support many local partners with clinical pharmacy services.
