As part of our wider network within the Nottinghamshire Dermatology Service, the post holder will also be expected to travel to other sites across Nottinghamshire when required to support and assist with minor surgery clinics. Flexibility and the ability to work effectively across different locations are therefore essential.

The successful candidate will have previous experience working within a GP practice, primary care or NHS healthcare setting and will demonstrate excellent communication, organisational and interpersonal skills. They will be confident working independently whilst also working collaboratively with GPs, nurses and the wider multidisciplinary team.

This is an excellent opportunity for an enthusiastic Healthcare Assistant to further develop their skills within a busy primary care environment and play a key role in delivering safe, effective and patient-centred care across our practices.

Main duties of the job

The post holder will work across both practice sites and provide a range of clinical and administrative support, including:

• Assisting clinicians with minor surgical procedures and supporting patients before, during and after procedures.

• Preparing and maintaining treatment rooms, clinical equipment and supplies.

• Maintaining high standards of infection prevention and control, including cleaning equipment and safe disposal of clinical waste and sharps.

• Carrying out phlebotomy/blood taking within training and competence.

• Undertaking NHS Health Checks, clinical observations and cardiovascular risk assessments, including recording blood pressure, pulse, height, weight and BMI.

• Supporting health promotion, recall and review processes where required.

• Completing accurate clinical documentation and updating patient records.

• Providing chaperone support and assisting clinicians and the wider practice team with routine clinical duties.

• Supporting stock management, ordering and maintaining appropriate levels of clinical supplies.

• Following practice policies, procedures, confidentiality and information governance requirements.

• Providing a welcoming, professional and patient-centred service.

• Travelling between Bilsthorpe Surgery and other sites as required to meet service needs.

About us

We are a two-partner GMS (General Medical Services) teaching practice with a steadily growing patient list of approximately 4,370 patients. We pride ourselves on delivering excellent clinical care with a strong ethos of service to our local community. This commitment is reflected in consistently high QOF achievement, a low level of complaints, and regular positive feedback from patients. We were rated GOOD in all areas at our most recent CQC inspection (08.06.22).

In addition, we also deliver the Nottinghamshire Community Dermatology Service. The service is commissioned by the local Integrated Care Board and is currently expanding further into Nottinghamshire. The dermatology service operates from within our GP surgery and provides high-quality, community-based specialist care.

We are also a recognised teaching practice, supporting medical students from the University of Nottingham, PA students from Sheffield Hallam University, and De Montfort University, Leicester. Personal development and ongoing training for the entire practice team remain a longstanding priority.

Job summary

We are looking for an enthusiastic, experienced and proactive Clinical Pharmacist to join The Castle Practice on a full-time, permanent basis. The successful candidate must have demonstrable primary care experience in a GP practice or Primary Care Network (PCN) setting.

This is a hands-on clinical role designed to add meaningful capacity to the practice. You will work closely with our GPs and wider multidisciplinary team, with a particular focus on providing daily clinical pharmacy support to the Duty Doctor, managing medicines-related workload autonomously and helping patients receive safe, timely and effective care.

A key part of the role will be taking ownership of acute prescription requests and medication-related queries from patients, community pharmacies, reception and clinical colleagues. We are looking for a proactive problem-solver who will investigate and resolve issues within their scope of competence rather than routinely passing work back to the GP or reception team. Appropriate escalation to a GP will always be supported where clinically necessary.

The balance of work will vary according to practice demand. The successful candidate will therefore need to be flexible and comfortable moving between acute workload, long-term condition reviews, structured medication reviews, medicines optimisation and other clinical priorities.

Main duties of the job

Provide daily clinical pharmacy support to the Duty Doctor and wider practice team.Manage acute prescription requests and medication queries, including urgent supply issues, monitoring requirements and queries arising from hospital correspondence or transfer of care. Undertake long-term condition reviews and associated medication reviews, including appropriate monitoring and medication optimisation. Undertake structured clinical medication reviews, particularly for patients with complex polypharmacy, frailty, high-risk medicines or multiple long-term conditions, with a proactive focus on appropriate deprescribing and reduction of dependence-forming medicines, including controlled drugs and benzodiazepines, in partnership with patients and in line with clinical guidance. Support safe and efficient repeat prescribing, medicines reconciliation and discharge medication processes. Prescribe, initiate, stop or titrate medicines within scope of competence and in accordance with local and national guidance where appropriately qualified. Provide expert medicines advice to patients and members of the practice team. Identify recurring medicines-related problems or inefficient processes and proactively develop practical solutions with the practice team. Support medicines optimisation, prescribing safety, quality improvement, QOF and relevant enhanced service work. Work flexibly across clinical priorities according to day-to-day practice workload.

About us

The post holder will be supported by experienced GPs and will work as an integral member of the practice multidisciplinary team. We are looking for someone who wants to make a visible difference to patient care, prescribing safety and the day-to-day workload of general practice.
