Job summary

12-Month Fixed Term Contract (Maternity cover)

This role offers the opportunity to gain valuable specialist experience within oncology and haematology pharmacy services while supporting the delivery of a comprehensive, patient-centred medicines optimisation service for patients receiving cancer treatment at Great Western Hospital.

We are looking for a registered Pharmacy Technician with excellent communication and organisational skills, a passion for patient care, and a desire to develop specialist knowledge within Cancer Services. Previous oncology or haematology experience is desirable but not essential, as full training and support will be provided.

This fixed-term post provides an excellent opportunity to broaden your clinical and leadership experience within a supportive and innovative Cancer Pharmacy Team committed to delivering safe, effective and compassionate care for our patients.

Main duties of the job

Key duties include:

• Providing medicines optimisation services to oncology and haematology patients.
• Undertaking medicines reconciliation, medication history taking and assessment of patients' own medicines.
• Supporting safe and timely discharge planning and continuity of medicines supply.
• Providing patient counselling and medicines education, including support for patients receiving oral anti-cancer therapies.
• Working collaboratively with pharmacists and the wider multidisciplinary team to optimise patient care.
• Supporting the training, supervision and development of pharmacy technicians, support staff and trainees.
• Participating in audit, governance, quality improvement and service development initiatives.
• Maintaining compliance with medicines legislation, professional standards and departmental procedures.

This role would suit an experienced Pharmacy Technician looking to develop specialist Cancer Services experience within a supportive and progressive pharmacy team.

About us

We are proud to be part of BSW Hospitals Group - a formal partnership between Great Western Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, Royal United Hospitals Bath NHS Foundation Trust and Salisbury NHS Foundation Trust. With a combined workforce of over 17, 600 colleagues, and budget of 1.6 billion the Group is united by a common purpose to deliver the best possible care to over 1 million people.

We are creating a health and care system that works with the people we care for, reducing the differences people currently face in access, experience and outcomes, improving the experience of our colleagues and tackling shared challenges like sustainability and finances. Every improvement we make across our Group will be guided by what creates the greatest benefit for our colleagues, our patients, our communities and our partners.

Job summary

This role is part of a new and exciting service providing forensic community service to a specialist group who require expert interventions. The FIND service works with adults with a diagnosis of a learning disability (LD) and/or Autism (ASD) who also experience additional mental illness, co-morbid neurodevelopmental conditions, or behaviours which challenge and who have had contact with forensic services.

The team covers the London boroughs of Wandsworth, Sutton, Merton, Kingston and Richmond. The team is informed by principles of assertive outreach and largely follows the PACT model.

The team is multidisciplinary and currently comprises of a Psychiatrist, Team Manager, Psychologist, Social Worker, Speech & Language Therapist, Occupational Therapist, Community Psychiatric Nurses, Assistant Psychologist and an Office Manager. Patients are seen at their homes and hostels and at a variety of community locations, and the job therefore involves a considerable amount of travel. The post holder will be responsible to the Team Manager and will receive professional supervision from the senior Social Worker.

Main duties of the job

The successful candidate will work within the Forensic service, providing support to individuals with learning disabilities and/or autism leaving secure mental health services across the South London Partnership (SLP) and those in the community.

The post holder will provide a high-quality service to an agreed caseload of service users and their carer's, which will include care co-ordination and social supervision. The MDT team is a team of multi professionals with specialist skills and experience with the client group.

The post holder must be adept at prioritising the activities that will provide the most efficient, effective and safe step down or discharge pathway and escalate any conditions that will prevent this from happening. The post holder will also provide consultation, support and guidance to colleagues and service users in the community to reduce engagement with the criminal justice system.

We are Proud to Belong at South West London and St George's Mental Health NHS Trust.

We have expert services, a rich history and a clear commitment to providing the best quality care for those with mental ill-health. The Care Quality Commission already rates our services as 'good' - we aspire to be 'outstanding'.
