About the Role:
Canberra Health Services (CHS) is seeking a pharmacist with a keen interest in acute, emergency and general medicine to join the Division of Medicine (DoM) pharmacy team on site at Canberra Hospital, delivering clinical pharmacy services in line with the Advanced Pharmacy Australia (AdPha) Standards of Practice for Clinical Pharmacy Services.
The DoM provides acute and general medical services to the ACT and surrounding NSW, serving over half a million people. It includes the Emergency Department (ED), managing over 100,000 annual presentations in the new Critical Services Building, the Acute Medical Unit (AMU), General Medicine, Hospital in the Home (HITH), and subspecialties including Respiratory Medicine, Neurology, Endocrinology, Gastroenterology, Cardiology and Renal Medicine. You will participate in multidisciplinary ward rounds, advise on therapeutic drug monitoring, dose individualisation and medicines optimisation in multimorbidity,



polypharmacy and impaired kidney function, and, where credentialed, undertake Partnered Pharmacist Medication Charting (PPMC).
You will join a DoM clinical pharmacist team that is actively involved in clinical research across the Division, contributing to the evidence base for the quality use of medicines. The team contributes to and leads divisional medication safety initiatives, including incident review, policy and guideline development and quality improvement aligned with the NSQHS Medication Safety Standard, and supports the education of pharmacy, medical and nursing colleagues, students and patients.
This position will work on a rostered basis, including evening shifts in the ED and AMU, and requires generalist clinical pharmacy skills for the weekend, public holiday, after hours and on-call rosters in areas that may be outside of the DoM.
The pharmacy department is a progressive team of approximately 100 staff, running an AdPha accredited residency program, an intern training program and several accredited Registrar Training Programs.
