Job Details
We are currently recruiting for a full time Pharmacist in Kendal, Cumbria, at our Stricklandgate pharmacy. Located in the Lake District, this pharmacy offers a great opportunity for an experienced Pharmacist to develop their professional skills, as our Kendal store currently dispenses 2,400 items per week and delivers not only NHS services but several private services, such as, travel, meningitis B, private Flu, Chicken Pox, hair retention, etc. This store also has a Care Homes service business, roughly dispensing 1,000 items per week. The successful Pharmacist will work 40 hours per week, with alternating Saturdays, and will be supported by a team of x7 Dispensers, x1 ACT and x1 other Pharmacist. Kendal is on the doorstep of The Lake District and is an inspiring place for many, ideal for those that enjoy the outdoors, beautiful scenery, and to escape the city life. Store Manager Liz says, “Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much. This pharmacy team is like family, we all work together to support each other. A hard working and fun team with customer/patient care at the core.”
Company
Boots is the UK’s leading pharmacy-led health and beauty retailer. With over 2,500* stores in the UK, ranging from local community pharmacies to large destination health and beauty stores, our purpose is to help our customers look and feel better than they ever thought possible.
From our local pharmacies to our largest flagship stores, from care homes through to hospital services, we aim to give a great pharmacy experience.
Working with the NHS
As a community pharmacy, we are a key partner to the NHS. We work closely to agree new ways for pharmacists to provide community healthcare, and design new services which meet the specific needs of the communities in which we work.
Many of our pharmacy teams work with primary care organisations, meeting local healthcare needs, and with our national voice we are helping to shape Government thinking about our nation's health.
Expanding the role of pharmacy
We are committed to extending the role of pharmacy professionals as a primary health provider, in line with Government priorities. Our team of pharmacists and pharmacy support colleagues are passionate about providing expert advice and healthcare services and we pride ourselves in having great teams to deliver all our customers' healthcare needs. These professionals are at the very heart of our business. Examples of these pharmacy services are our Travel Vaccination Service, Winter Flu Vaccination Service, Smokeless Service and Diabetes Risk Assessment Service.
