    Description

    Welcome to an amazing opportunity as a Clinical Pharmacist at AWP!

    Are you a pharmacist with a strong desire to make a positive impact on individuals dealing with mental health challenges? If yes, then this role at AWP might be the perfect fit for you. We are looking for a vibrant pharmacist with excellent communication skills to join our pharmacy and clinical teams in BaNES. While previous mental health experience is advantageous, we offer specialized training and induction programs for pharmacists transitioning from other sectors. This role is ideal for pharmacists seeking to enhance their mental health clinical skills and move away from acute Trust, ICB, or PCN settings.

    As a Clinical Pharmacist at AWP, you will collaborate with healthcare professionals at Hillview Lodge, situated on the Royal United Hospital site. Your responsibilities will include working with nurses, doctors, AHPs, and primary care colleagues in inpatient and community teams. Your focus will be on teamwork, aiding the Locality Lead Pharmacist in enhancing the clinical pharmacy service in BaNES to ensure improved outcomes for our patients.

    Main duties of the job:

    • Provide a clinical pharmacy service to inpatient wards and community teams in BaNES
    • Offer specialist pharmaceutical expertise to MDTs and respond to medicines information inquiries
    • Participate in multidisciplinary rounds, team meetings, and ward rounds
    • Contribute to the education and training of staff on medication-related issues
    • Advise service users and carers on medications
    • Engage in audits and projects to enhance the pharmacy service

    Joining the AWP pharmacy team means being part of a group that supplies medication and offers clinical support across our catchment area. With pharmacies in Calne and Callington Road Hospital, we manage the medicines supply chain and promote safe and effective medication use through various clinical activities. Our team is friendly, progressive, and committed to enhancing patient care throughout the AWP region.

    AWP is Avon and Wiltshire Mental Health Partnership NHS Trust. With a workforce of over 5,000 dedicated staff, we deliver mental health services to communities in Bath and North East Somerset, Bristol, North Somerset, South Gloucestershire, Swindon, Wiltshire, and parts of Dorset. Our focus is on promoting mental health and wellbeing through person-centered care. AWP values diversity and welcomes applicants from various backgrounds, aiming to create a stronger, more inclusive workforce.

    About the role:

    Your responsibilities include providing, monitoring, and supporting the development of clinical pharmacy services to inpatient and community mental health teams in conjunction with the Locality Lead Pharmacist(s). You will ensure safe and evidence-based medication use, offer pharmaceutical expertise to multidisciplinary teams, maintain efficient medicines supply chains, and contribute to staff education and training on medication-related matters.
