Turn clinical expertise into systemwide impact as a Coordinator Pharmacy Operations supporting high-quality pharmacy care across multiple Northern California hospital locations!

The Coordinator Pharmacy Operations will join a respected healthcare organization known for compassionate care, clinical excellence, safety, and strong community relationships. This organization promotes evidence-based practice, interdisciplinary collaboration, clinician education, and frontline-led performance improvement. The Pharmacy Operations Coordinator will have opportunities to influence medication safety, antimicrobial stewardship, quality outcomes, clinical protocols, and professional development while working in a culture that values accountability, innovation, staff wellbeing, and meaningful service to diverse communities.

Within Pharmacy Administration, the Inpatient Pharmacy Coordinator will support an inpatient pharmacy department that stands out as a trusted healthcare provider offering compassionate, patient-centered care, experienced medical professionals, advanced medical technology, comprehensive healthcare services, emergency care, surgical services, and a strong commitment to improving the health and well-being of individuals and families throughout the community. The Pharmacy Operations Coordinator will help strengthen pharmacy services across several affiliated hospitals, creating opportunities for broad clinical exposure and measurable regional impact.

Key responsibilities for the Coordinator Pharmacy Operations include evaluating and dispensing medication orders, overseeing unit-dose and IV admixture services, reviewing antibiotic and medication-dosing protocols, supporting formulary standardization, and coordinating therapeutic drug monitoring. The Pharmacy Operations Coordinator will also lead Medication Use Evaluations, Antibiotic Use Reviews, clinical intervention reporting, quality assurance studies, performance improvement initiatives, medication education, risk‑management follow‑up, and clinical staff development while promoting safe, effective, and cost-conscious medication use.
