Reference: 2437469
Job summary
Are you methodical? Do you pride yourself on your attention to detail and accuracy? Are you Patient focused. Then this may be the new career for you!
Working in Aseptic Services is a vocation. It is technical, detailed, sometimes repetitive but the learning never ends.
We provide a range of injectable medicines e.g Chemotherapy and Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN) for patients and clinical trials, using isolator cabinets in a cleanroom environment.
Working as part of a team, once trained you would be responsible for making a range of medicines using a range of aseptic manipulations and using needles and syringes.
Working under supervision you also will rotate through other areas of the department so you need to be able to follow procedures precisely and be able to document things clearly and concisely.
No experience is necessary for the band 2 position as comprehensive training will be given.
This position offers progression from Band 2 to Band 3 after completion of training and qualification.
Only candidates with suitable experience and NVQ Level 2 in Pharmacy Services/SMPO or accepted equivalent may apply for the Band 3 position.
IMPORTANT: Candidates who fail to supply a detailed supporting statement specifying how their skills and experience match the person specification contained in the job description will not be invited for interview.
Main duties of the job
To aseptically prepare products for patient administration. You will wear clean room clothing and be trained to work following strict clean room behaviours.
You will assemble trays containing consumables and pharmaceutical ingredients for 1st stage checks, therefore must be able to document information clearly and accurately.
You will perform transfer sanitisation using sterile agents e.g. isopropyl alcohol and other disinfectant agents and be responsible for cleaning equipment and areas of work to the highest standards on a regular basis.
Unfortunately, this role does not meet the criteria required to qualify for sponsorship.
