5.6 weeks annual leave plus bank holidays
1 week study leave (pro rata)
We are looking for an experienced and enthusiastic independently prescribing pharmacist to join our expanding medicines management team at Wide Way Medical Centre. We currently employ 1 independently prescribing pharmacist supported by a pharmacy technician, but recognise we need to expand our team to meet the needs of our 16,000 population.
We serve a diverse population in a relatively deprived area of Merton with a high burden of cardiovascular disease in particular so an interest in cardiovascular-disease care is desired but not essential.
We can offer a dynamic and innovative working environment,with plenty of development opportunities.
The role is practice based and there is flexibility for hybrid working with a mix of on-site and remote work - this is currently largely dictated by physical room space constraints but is negotiable. For direct patient contact activity we like it to be face-to-face because we believe this builds better trust and rapport but non-direct activities can be performed remotely to an extent, but it is important that you meet colleagues and feel fully embedded as part of the whole practice team.
We are a CQC rated "OUTSTANDING" practice.
Main duties of the job
Medicines Management Responsible for implementing and communicating medicines-related policies, procedures, and protocols in line with SWL optimisation priorities. This includes repeat prescribing, ensuring appropriate and monitored medications, reconciling changes from external providers, and conducting structured medication reviews (SMRs). Also includes oversight of Personally Administered Items (PAIs), medicines audits, safety alerts, and responding to medicine-related queries. Liaison with community pharmacists, ICS and PCN teams is essential to deliver national/local priorities. Staff are updated on medicines performance, with quality improvement activities supported.
Long Term Conditions Management (CVD) As part of the Planned Care team, responsibilities include managing long-term conditionsfocusing on CVD, AF, Heart Failure, Diabetes, Hypertension, and CKDvia structured reviews and optimisation clinics. The role supports multidisciplinary collaboration to improve outcomes for high-risk patient cohorts.
About us
Wide Way Medical Centre is based in South West London.
We take care of almost 16000 patients in a modern, purpose built surgery with ample car parking.
Our team consists of 4 GP Partners plus a Managing Partner, 5 Salaried GPs, 2 Advanced Care Practitioners, Practice Nurses, a Paramedic, Social Prescriber, Health and Wellbeing Coach, Care Coordinators and a fantastic administrative support team.
We are a training practice with 4 GP trainers and we host GP registrars, medical students and nursing students.
We greatly value the expertise our pharmacist and pharmacy technician colleagues bring and support the personal and professional development of all our staff, particularly with respect to cardiovascular disease care which is a focus for us due to our local burden.
the successful candidate will take part in the weekly cardiovascular optimisation meetings, planned care meetings and medicines management meetings to support the medicines management team
