Forth Valley Royal Hospital
We are looking for a highly motivated and enthusiastic pharmacy support worker to join our cancer pharmacy team. You will primarily work within dispensing and aseptic areas but will also gain experience in pharmacy stores and outpatient and ward areas. You will need to be flexible, organised, work well within a team, and have a positive, can-do attitude. Previous pharmacy experience is essential. You will have excellent communication skills and have an NVQ2 qualification in pharmacy services or be working towards one. The post holder(s) will be required to participate in weekend and public holiday rotas.
The job involves rotating through the dispensary and the pharmacy aseptic (sterile) unit, supporting pharmacists and pharmacy technicians. Responsibilities include dispensing chemotherapy and medicines for side effect management, stock control, coordinating medicines delivery, environmental monitoring, assembly and transfer of products for aseptic manufacture, and administrative tasks.
Due to the critical and sensitive nature of our work, you will be required to meet high standards of discipline and personal hygiene, adhere to standard operating procedures, and maintain clean room behaviours. Full aseptic training will be provided.
We are a friendly, forward-thinking team committed to putting cancer patients at the heart of everything we do and would love to have you on board.
