I went to a public sector pharmacy on Monday where one of the big recruiters had sent a flyer advertising their services. They advertised that they are recruiting for pharmacists, technicians and assistant pharmacists!
Anyone ever come across an assistant pharmacist before….anywhere! So big companies and the public sector don’t take the easy route and engage with big recruitment firms. Engage with small, specialist agencies like PL-UK. At the very least, we do know what we are talking about!
I am looking for a locum pharmacist for interesting vacancy in South West London. The vacancy is likely to last 2-3 months and will be working with a company to help develop a GP practice system. IT expertise not required but basic IT skills helpful. Call Shaun at PL-UK on 01677 424204 for more details.
A CV will be required so please snd an up to date CV to shaun@pluk.co.uk.
Newly qualified pharmacists welcome to apply
A community pharmacy screening pilot for intravenous drug misusers identified 68 per cent of patients who had unknowingly been exposed to hepatitis C.
The scheme, set up by the British Liver Trust, illustrates how community pharmacies that already offer needle exchange and methadone services for drug misusers can help identify undiagnosed liver disease.

Next Development – a pharmacist conducting the test as part of the research team? Hope so.
As you know, I am very proud of the fact that we scored 95% in our customer satisfaction survey last week. However, two areas that we scored lower in were for our marketing material and awareness of all the services we offer.
The marketing material issue is in hand and we will be producing hard copies and PDF’s flyers explaining the services we provide in the next few weeks, with regard to services, this post is the start of a song and dance about other services we provide.
We started of life trading in 2003 as Pharmacy Locums UK – a pure locum agency supplying locum pharmacists and technicians across all sectors. Most pharmacists and pharmacy owners/operators are aware of this and understand this part of our business.
However, in 2006 we changed our trading name to PL-UK Recruitment to acknowledge and advertise the fact that we no longer provide just locum agency services but also permanent recruitment services. Apparently, as the results of our survey show, this is less well known and the challenge for me now is changing this to make sure that clients and candidates know that we provide both locum and permanent recruitment services.
Let the challenge begin!

Agency Workers Regulations – how does it effect me?
The simple answer is it doesn’t. …. in most cases. For more expert guidance than I can supply as a pharmacist rather than a legal bod please click on the link below. http://www.pcg.org.uk/cms/documents/01109%20PCG%20A4%2020PP%20BROCHURE%20SINGLE%20PAGES.pdf

Just a quick post to remind all pharmacist that they need to renew their GPhC registration by the 31st October. So you still have a month to pay but if you are anything like me, if you don’t do it now, there’s a chance you’ll forget!
