“One of the main things that I love about being a reliever pharmacist, is that it allows me to combine my love of travel, with my passion for pharmacy and truly making a meaningful difference in patients’ lives. I enjoy the variety of working with different teams in different locations, it keeps things fresh and exciting – no two days are the same. Working as a reliever pharmacist has exposed me to many different clinical areas in hospital pharmacy, where I’ve developed the type of knowledge and experience that I would not have gained otherwise.”
