Job overview
Salisbury District Hospital is committed to outstanding healthcare. We are looking to recruit a dedicated Principal Pharmacist to a fixed term post (ending in December 2026) to lead the Pharmacy Digital Care team during the transition from Lorenzo to Cerner EPMA
Main duties of the job
To take on this varied and interesting role you must have strong digital and clinical skills, a proven ability to lead multidisciplinary teams and a track record of delivering change in healthcare. Subject matter expertise and familiarity with the administration of e-medicines management systems is highly desirable.
You will have a strong interest in how digital solutions can help provide safe and efficient patient care. Whilst experience in ward-based medicines management is an advantage, we are most interested in your specialist knowledge of e-medicines systems and how these skills can help us in our journey over the next two years from Lorenzo to Cerner EPMA, as part of the Shared EPR Programme.
As a member of the Pharmacy Senior Management Team, you will work strategically with the EPMA Central Workstream Lead for Shared EPR, other EPMA leads in the Acute Hospital Alliance and the Chief Pharmacist to ensure the digital medicines agenda for EPMA and the transition from Lorenzo to Cerner is planned and implemented safely
You will have to work collaboratively alongside medical, nursing and pharmacy peers, Trust IT and suppliers, ensuring alignment of priorities and co-ordination of activities during transition and implementation of the Shared EPR Programme. The ability to persuade and influence well are essential characteristics for the role.
