Summary
Do you have a strong clinical background and demonstrable track record of leading teams and influencing clinicians? This is an exciting opportunity for a dynamic Lead Pharmacist to join our Integrated Pharmacy workforce leading the joint team delivering clinical pharmacy services to the eight GP practices across Wallasey Wellbeing and Moreton & Meols PCNs.
You will lead a team of pharmacists and technicians to ensure patients get the right medicine at the right time and are supported to get the most out of them. As an integrated role this is an exciting opportunity for the successful candidate to shape how PCN clinical pharmacy services can be developed to improve the health of the populations for these practices.
We have embraced collaboration to achieve a system wide overview of the patients’ medicines journey. This helps you identify how processes can be improved when patients move between care settings and become part of the system wide pharmacy family.
As a lead for the PCN Pharmacy team, the role will:
· Operationally and clinically lead a responsive, proactive, patient focused service to both PCNs.
· Lead a team of Clinical Pharmacists and Technicians to deliver an agreed workplan in line with the PCN joint priorities
· Evaluate performance to ensure a consistently high-quality service is delivered, in collaboration with the multidisciplinary team.
· Provide a highly specialist clinical pharmacy service to patients and staff within the PCNs and across the wider system as required.
· Clinically supervise and provide mentorship to the team which will include trainees.
· Contribute to the strategic development of the service delivered to the PCNs, including developing the joint workplan and projects.
· Build strong relationships with community pharmacy and trust pharmacy colleagues.
· Develop and contribute to the integration agenda by supporting improvements in patient care and the development of integrated pathways across the interface.
All new colleagues can expect to receive a warm and friendly Wirral welcome from the very first time they make contact with us. We are described as “competent and caring staff” by our patients.
Wirral University Teaching Hospital NHS Foundation Trust is situated on The Wirral peninsula which has a stunning coastline and beautiful countryside surroundings, with great activities for its residents.
We are one of the largest and busiest acute Trusts in the North West of England, comprising of the Wirral’s only Emergency Department. We provide a high quality range of acute care services and employ over 6,000 staff, who serve a population of approximately 400,000 people across Wirral, Ellesmere Port, Neston, North Wales and the wider North West footprint.
We have approximately 855 beds trust-wide and our financial turnover is in excess of £337m.
The Wirral is easily accessible with excellent transport links including motorway, train, bus or ferry and within easy reach to the major cities of Liverpool, Chester and Manchester as well as neighbouring North Wales.
Please see the job overview and attached job description for further information about the role. Whilst this is an integrated post we would require the successful candidate to work their full hours within the PCN setting. We welcome applications from candidates with a Community/Primary Care background who would like to work solely in Primary Care.
