Trosolwg o'r swydd
An exciting opportunity has arisen for a proactive and dynamic individual to lead the antimicrobial stewardship programme during the maternity leave of the current post-holder.
You will work closely with our consultant microbiologists and senior members of the pharmacy team to deliver the agenda. You will also have an active role in the leadership and provision of clinical pharmacy to surgery and critical care. The role would therefore work as one full-time or two part-time posts.
We are proud of the achievements of our antimicrobial team, with compliance with national and local antimicrobial audits, and our Microguide app.
Our department has over 100 staff of which half are pharmacists, and eighteen of whom are band 8As. We are a friendly and progressive pharmacy team with a strong emphasis on training and development. The Trust is an associated university teaching hospital, linked to Brighton and Sussex Medical School. The pharmacy department works closely with Health Education England to deliver the foundation pharmacist training programme, as well as the Universities of Brighton and Medway. Ask us about our links with Guy’s and St Thomas’ and other local healthcare organisations.
