Full-Time Salaried Clinical Pharmacist

Job Summary

The post holder must have

demonstrable primary care experience in a GP practice or PCN setting.

The Clinical Pharmacist will

act within their professional boundaries and work as an integral member of The

Castle Practice multidisciplinary team, supported by experienced GPs.

The post holder will be

expected to work autonomously, use professional judgement, prioritise competing

demands and take responsibility for resolving clinical pharmacy queries within

their competence.

Appropriate escalation to a GP

or other clinician is expected where clinically necessary. However, the post

holder should investigate and progress issues themselves and should not

routinely return complex or time-consuming matters to GPs or reception simply

because further work is required.

The post holder will take

responsibility for appropriate areas of chronic disease management and

undertake clinical medication reviews for patients with complex polypharmacy

and other medicines related needs.

The post holder will contribute

to medicines optimisation, prescribing safety, quality improvement, QOF and

relevant enhanced services.
