There is a rare and exciting opportunity for an enthusiastic pharmacist to join the adult clinical nutrition pharmacy team at Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust, covering the maternity leave of the postholder. The fixed term is expected to be 11months.

We are looking for an experienced, dynamic and highly motivated pharmacist with knowledge and skills in gastrointestinal surgery (including intestinal failure) and parenteral nutrition to join our supportive, integrated pharmacy team, committed to delivering high quality patient care to both in-patients and to patients at home.

You will be an integral member of the expert nutrition multidisciplinary team (MDT) comprising of gastro and GI surgery consultants, dietitians, clinical nurse specialists and rotational clinical pharmacists to co-ordinate the care of adult patients requiring parenteral nutrition, and contribute to the safe prescribing of parenteral nutrition, quality care, risk management, and research.

• You will deliver a highly specialist clinical nutrition service to surgical, medical, oncology, gastroenterology and intensive care wards within the Trust
• Negotiate with the nutrition MDT to ensure the service is delivered safely and meets the needs of the patients by promoting the safe and cost-effective use of parenteral nutrition
• Lead on medicines solutions for intestinal failure patients on home parenteral nutrition
• Act as the Trust pharmacy lead across the Central London intestinal Failure Partnership (CLIP) network in collaboration with peers from Barts Health NHS Trust and University College London Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, delivering on projects/developing pathways for the prescribing and monitoring of drugs such as for treating short bowel syndrome
• Support the rotational clinical pharmacists within clinical nutrition by acting as a role model and section manager
• Promote best practice, utilising local and regional benchmarking groups for the generation and promotion of standards, clinical guidelines and efficiencies
• Participate in departmental and multidisciplinary audit/research activities, to ensure cost-improvement and quality targets are met
  
  

You'll work closely with specialist pharmacists in gastroenterology and GI surgery to individualise therapy for complex nutrition patients, including maintaining long term conditions despite reduced oral absorption. Your patients may be across both sites, though predominantly on St Thomas' site.

Working as part of a senior team (also including colleagues in orthopaedics, plastics, and anticoagulation safety) you'll deliver patient and pathway changes across surgical specialities to create quality care across all surgical patients, through training and support of a team of pharmacists and technicians.
