JOIN OUR INNOVATIVE NHS TEAM AND MAKE A REAL DIFFERENCE IN COMMUNITY HEALTHCARE BY HELPING VULNERABLE RESIDENTS LIVE HEALTHIER, MORE INDEPENDENT LIVES.

We are recruiting a passionate and proactive Neighbourhood Clinical Pharmacist to join the Dacorum Neighbourhood Proactive Care Service.
This is an exciting opportunity to play a key role in a new team delivering community-based, person-centred care for residents. The focus will be on holistic assessments, care coordination, addressing health inequalities and delivering on the strategic ambition of a ’neighbourhood health service’.
You’ll work as part of a multidisciplinary team supporting a cohort of residents with moderate to severe frailty who have had 2 or more unplanned admissions within the last year, linking them to health, social care, and voluntary sector services.
This service will facilitate the shift from reactive care to proactive identification by using risk stratification searches within Primary Care records. The searches will identify a cohort of patients who would benefit from targeted intervention to improve outcomes, their overall experience and reduce the likelihood of further unplanned admissions. The service will operate alongside a number of other acute and community services, with the ability to step patients up into appropriate services, including the highly successful virtual ward models in South and West Hertfordshire.
This role presents an excellent opportunity to work in a topical area of service delivery within the NHS right now and will provide the opportunity to gain service development skills.
Just as we care about our patients’ wellbeing, we care about yours!

BENEFITS:

• A comprehensive induction into the community service followed by a local induction to introduce you to the role
• Car lease scheme (T&Cs apply)
• Flexible working options
• Flexitime
• Annual travel card loan
• Training, support and development in your career

  You will be part of a multidisciplinary team working alongside a dedicated GP, nurses, AHPs, and case coordinators.
