What I'm looking for

I am seeking patient-focused pharmacist roles where I can enhance medication safety, lead MTM services, collaborate with multidisciplinary teams, participate in clinical research, and support community health initiatives while continuing professional growth.

I am a community pharmacist with hands-on experience in dispensing, patient counselling, medication management, and health promotion across community and hospital settings. I prioritise safe, evidence-based care and clear communication with patients and healthcare teams.

I have prepared and handled chemotherapy, calculated patient-specific doses, participated in clinical trials, and conducted medication reviews and clinical audits to optimise therapy. I deliver medication therapy management services, run health screenings (blood pressure and blood sugar), and monitor for adverse drug reactions while maintaining regulatory-compliant records.

I also support pharmacy operations through supplier relationship management, training and supervising support staff, and developing patient adherence strategies. I am committed to improving patient outcomes and contributing to multidisciplinary care.
