Some of these tasks may require a moderate degree of technical expertise, plus a high level of focus and attention to detail. You will coordinate the collection of information, input and analyse data, update clinical records as appropriate and collate information in support of quality medication reviews. You will also be required to discuss use of medicines over the phone with patients. This is an opportunity to develop your career in Primary Care working with multidisciplinary teams, particularly GP practices, Community Pharmacies, Care Homes and across other care settings.
