An exciting opportunity has arisen within Northumbria Primary Care for an increase in our Band 4 Registered Pharmacy Technician teams, supporting a group of GP practices within a neighbourhood footprint.
The successful candidate will contribute to the delivery of a comprehensive primary care medicines management system acting on current best practice. The Pharmacy Technician will be required to undertake activities predominantly within practice, but will need to be flexible to work to the wider demands of the network. The role will contribute to the efficient and effective delivery of medicines to patients e.g. medicines supply, actioning of discharge summary medication changes, liaising with care homes regarding prescription queries and supporting the organisation move towards online prescription services. An understanding of primary care operations and use of SystmOne would be an advantage but is not essential.
Northumbria Primary Care Ltd (NPC) is a pioneering partnership with local GPs and now manages several GP practices with around 120,000 registered patients in Northumberland and North Tyneside.
Appointees will have a nominated base site within NPC, this vacancy is for Rothbury. We appreciate continuity and teamwork is vital to effective primary care. As a large multi-site organisation we benefit from offering cross site support and the opportunity to work flexibly across our practices. We also offer evening and weekend working which further enhances flexible working opportunities. Please note that NPC is a wholly owned subsidiary of Northumbria Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust.
