Job summary
Interested in working in developing your clinical skills and working in the community setting?

As a patient facing role, the role offers a great opportunity to utilise and further develop strong clinical skills as an independent prescriber as part of a Neighbourhood team approach to care.
Being supported by a network of pharmacists and pharmacy technicians, this post is an exciting opportunity to work in the primary care and interface setting. but maintain strong links with pharmacy colleagues in both secondary and community settings. This close working also includes the ability to access continuing professional development via peer learning events with pharmacy professionals within both secondary care and community settings.
The postholder would work across the Borough, delivering care to an allocated neighbourhood and be based at either South Lewisham Health Centre or University hospital Lewisham.
As a patient facing role, regular home working is not included within this role. However some hybrid working may be required when working in the community setting.
