Pharmacy Technician Pharmaceutical Clinical Services

• You work in the heart of the clinical care process and have daily contact with patients, doctors, and nurses
• You make a direct contribution to medication safety within a top-clinical hospital
• You provide specialist pharmaceutical patient care in departments such as the ICU, ER, and nursing wards
• You have a varied role in which you work across multiple hospital departments
• You will be given space to think along about improvements and participate in innovative projects such as Medication in Self-Management and Continued Use of Home Medication.

Together with your colleagues, you ensure a good and safe medication supply in the hospital. As a Pharmacy Technician for Pharmaceutical Clinical Services (FKD), you do this for patients on nursing wards, the Emergency Room (ER), Preoperative screening, and the Intensive Care Unit (ICU).

You ask patients who are being admitted about their medication, medical history, and any allergies. You also speak with doctors and nurses. You carefully process this information in the Electronic Patient Record. Does a doctor change the medication? Then you check if everything is correct.

Medicines that must be administered via an infusion or injections, you prepare on the nursing ward or ICU. And because two pairs of eyes see more than one, you always work on this together with a direct colleague.
You alternate these activities with answering questions from doctors, nurses, and other colleagues. Every now and then, you are the go-to person at our internal pharmacy counter.
Additionally, we find it important that you enjoy doing what you are good at. Do you want to further develop yourself, take on extra tasks, or train colleagues? It is all possible!

In summary, your most common activities are:

• Medication monitoring during admission
• Conducting medication verification interviews with patients
• Keeping patient records up to date in EPIC
• Preparing medication for administration (VTGM)
• Performing tasks for the internal pharmacy counter

Additionally, you actively contribute to the further development of the pharmaceutical services within the hospital. You think along about process improvements, guide colleagues or interns where necessary, and contribute your expertise to projects that further strengthen the quality and safety of medication care.

As an experienced pharmacy technician, you will get plenty of space within our team to utilize your knowledge and expertise. You are an important link between patient, nurse, doctor, and hospital pharmacy and have an active role in monitoring and optimizing medication processes. In addition to daily patient care, you can participate in projects that contribute to better and safer care, such as Medication in Self-Management and Continued Use of Home Medication.

You will join a warm and expert team of approximately 40 colleagues where collaboration, knowledge sharing, and development are central. Together, you ensure high-quality pharmaceutical care within one of the largest top-clinical hospitals in the Netherlands. You will do this from the Utrecht and Nieuwegein locations.
