pharmacy assistant preparations:
Very varied work where no two days are the same. In preparations, together with your team of pharmacy assistants and pharmaceutical staff, you ensure the preparation of cytostatics, parenteral nutrition, and VTGM procedures for sterile products. You will do this from our cleanrooms in Alkmaar or from the satellite pharmacy at the Den Helder location and soon also from the brand-new satellite pharmacies in the new building in Alkmaar. In a satellite pharmacy, you literally work on the ward, close to doctors, nurses, and above all: the patient. No day is the same, because you move with the rhythm of care.

Are you curious about what a satellite pharmacy is? Watch the video here!

You work according to the applicable GMP-Z guidelines and rules. You are primarily involved in the preparation, compounding, labeling, and packaging of protocolled medicines.
Working in a satellite pharmacy means being close to care, right in the middle of the action.

Whether you already have experience working in a hospital pharmacy or are interested in this dynamic working environment: with us, you will receive an extensive induction period and plenty of development opportunities within Noordwest.

'No two days are the same, and that is exactly what makes my work so beautiful.' Read the story of pharmacy assistant Christel here and why she has enjoyed working at Noordwest for 29 years.

pharmacy preparations:
Your workplace will be the Noordwest pharmacy: with satellite pharmacies where we prepare medication on 2 of the 5 floors of the new hospital in Alkmaar, the satellite pharmacy in Den Helder, and in the cleanrooms in the Lab Pharmacy (Alkmaar).
We do this from Monday to Friday between 08:00 and 16:30.

You will be part of a team of approximately 22 colleagues.
We work hard and enjoy helping each other. The workplace is modern and well-equipped.

What makes working in a hospital pharmacy extra attractive?

• you work in the middle of the care process and contribute visibly to patient safety
• you have short lines of communication with pharmacists, doctors, and nurses
• the focus is entirely on quality and safety, commerce plays no role

Furthermore, the work is varied and you can - if you wish - also move into another sub-field after some time. Within the hospital pharmacy, pharmacy assistants also work in the following areas:

• medication verification, where the pharmacy assistants conduct admission and discharge interviews with patients
• outpatient pharmacy, where prescription handling takes place at the counter
• logistics, where the pharmacy assistants manage the supply of wards

Together with doctors and pharmacists, our goal is to provide good specialist pharmaceutical care for all patients visiting Noordwest Ziekenhuisgroep.
