About our Pharmacy Service
An opportunity has arisen for the right candidates to contribute to our team in providing a high quality and respected clinical pharmacy service as a Senior Rotational Pharmacist.
You will be based at Colchester Hospital, spending a significant proportion of time working clinically at ward level in the Emergency Admissions, Care-of-the-Elderly/Frailty, Community Services, Women and Child Health, Critical Care and Antimicrobial Stewardship.
Being a key member of the multidisciplinary team you will be expected to fully integrate within the clinical environment providing a patient centred approach to medicines management/optimisation.
Weekend working and on-call will be required for this role.
Please also note that this vacancy may close prior to the advertised closing date so an early application is recommended.
Assisting the department in providing a comprehensive clinical pharmacy service to patients within East Suffolk and North Essex NHS Foundation Trust (ESNEFT).
Work closely with senior colleagues and clinical technicians to ensure the provision of an integrated and efficient clinical service.
Clinical practice will be centred through rotations in Emergency Admissions, Care-of-the-Elderly/Frailty, Community Services and Women’s and Childs Health at the Colchester Hospital site. This will also include some oversight/awareness of pharmacy services to the wards at Harwich and Clacton hospitals (longer stay and rehabilitation areas).
If not already achieved, it is expected that you will undertake the postgraduate education offered by the department e.g. Postgraduate Diploma in General Pharmacy Practice.
Further support will be offered to help facilitate progression to becoming an Independent Prescriber.
You will also receive training deemed necessary for each specialist rotation.
Work clinically at ward level; although it is an expectation that you will also support other clinical colleagues within the department as the holistic service requires.
We are ESNEFT and we provide hospital and community health services to almost one million people across east Suffolk and north Essex. Our dedicated staff deliver care from acute hospitals in Colchester and Ipswich, community hospitals, surgeries, community clinics and in patients’ own homes.
We are one of the largest NHS organisations in England, employing more than 12,000 staff.
We pride ourselves on supporting our staff. We offer a wide range of training and development opportunities, as well as flexible working options.
Along with supporting you to achieve your career goals we offer a generous pension scheme, unsocial hours payments (where applicable), 27 days annual leave on commencement (pro rata) and access to a range of NHS discounts. Our Staff Health and Wellbeing programme offer a variety of services.
Our philosophy is that Time Matters to everyone. Across the Trust, we concentrate on improving the things we do and removing those which cause time delays for our staff and patients.
We are investing in our commitment to Time Matters with a partnership with leading electronic patient record (EPR) supplier Epic. This digital transformation will bring what’s widely regarded as the world’s best EPR system to ESNEFT, transforming life in hospital for staff and patients.
If you are passionate about patient care and want to develop your skills and knowledge, then we want to hear from you.
