Motivated Pharmacy Assistant focused on accurate service, customer support, and organized warehouse operations.
What I'm looking for
I am a well-organised, reliable individual with experience delivering customer service in fast-paced healthcare environments. I rotated to a boots pharmacy located in the hospital, where I supported over-the-counter sales and provided handouts of prescriptions while handling customer enquiries and sign-posting when necessary.
Alongside patient support, I worked as a warehouse operative dealing with the supply and distribution of medicines to hospitals, clinics, LCD’s, schools, and other healthcare settings. I used an IT system to book in medicines, checked products against delivery notes, filed accordingly, and maintained efficient teamwork when picking, packing in line with relevant SOP’s, and distributing stock.
