Epsom, New Zealand MercyAscot Full time

We have a vacancy for a qualified pharmacy technician to join our pharmacy team at MercyAscot hospitals. Initially for a fixed term to cover parental leave there is the possibility of this role becoming permanent when our impressive new wing at Mercy Hospital in Epsom opens later this year.

Mercy Pharmacy is a unique workplace where our pharmacy department runs a hybrid model - serving both as a hospital pharmacy (provision of medications for inpatient use during a patient's hospital stay, dispensing of discharge prescriptions), as well as also being a registered community pharmacy (we provide community pharmacy services including dispensing prescriptions, blister packs, OTC and pharmacist-only consultations for patients, etc).

**Main duties will include**:

- Dispensing and supply of medications for patients at MercyAscot hospitals and community pharmacy prescriptions
- Providing over-the-counter advice to customers on non-prescription medicines, and providing patient counselling for medications (under the supervision of a pharmacist)
- Provide an effective and efficient imprest service to allocated wards and theatres
- Assist with queries from hospital staff (prescribers, nurses, etc) with regards to medications and escalate to the dispensary/clinical pharmacist for further advice where appropriate
- Supporting the charge dispensary manager and inventory/procurement staff to ensure good stock control of medications, and assisting with stock management
- Participate in pharmacy/medication-related audits and quality monitoring activities where required
- NZQA National Certificate in Pharmacy (Technician) level 5 or equivalent accepted by the Pharmaceutical Society of NZ
- Community pharmacy experience - competency using RxONE dispensing software is an advantage
- Hospital/ clinical pharmacy experience is an advantage (but not essential)
- Commitment to quality, accuracy and safety in their work
- Clear, concise communication and professional but friendly interpersonal skills

At **MercyAscot**we highly value our employees and are proud to offer very competitive remuneration, smart easy‑care uniforms, and a hospital wide Christmas & New Year close-down. MercyAscot employees also have access to a wide range of benefits including free parking, a robust Employee Assistance Programme, staff discounts on services, and discounts on retail, banking, childcare, e-bikes, and gym memberships.
