## Job Content

### Job overview

Do you want to be instrumental in developing pathways and services to transform the way that care is delivered locally? Are you interested in improving the health of our local population? If your answer is yes to any of these questions, then we are looking for you.

Primary Care Clinical Pharmacy Team (PCCPT) has developed and integrated primary care with community-based services within the Dudley healthcare system since 2020 with its core aim being community where possible and hospital when necessary. Our purpose is to improve the health and wellbeing of our local population in Dudley. We are currently working with organisations within the health care sector in Dudley and the Black Country System to look at the best way to continue to deliver the services to our patients.

### Main duties of the job

The duties and responsibilities are intended to be indicative but not exhaustive of the responsibilities of the post holder. PCCPT will develop flexible work programmes to meet the needs of our practices and population, as such the requirements of the job may develop and change.

The post offers candidates the opportunity to become involved in a wide range of patient facing activities such as chronic disease management, structured medication reviews, medicines reconciliation, safer prescribing initiatives as well as our work to support population health interventions to address health inequalities.

You will be required to undertake clinical structured medication reviews with patients taking high risk drugs (within scope of professional practice) and review for ongoing need and appropriate monitoring, making recommendations to senior staff/GP as appropriate. Arrange suitable follow up appointment(s) to monitor the effect of any changes implemented.

Although we support flexible working opportunities our primary care clinical pharmacist roles are predominately practice based to ensure we are working closely with our multidisciplinary teams.

You should have excellent written and verbal communication skills as well as experience of influencing others and conducting clinical medication reviews.
