Clinical Pharmacists should choose Medacy!

Disclosure of members interest : I founded Medacy and love the company, so I’m biased! However, I will try to provide a balanced argument for why Medacy is the ideal choice for Clinical Pharmacists looking to realise their full potential.

Point 1 – Medacy are Clinical Pharmacist specialists

Medacy are Pharmacy specialists. We are run by pharmacists and focus on either finding locum or permanent positions for pharmacists or using pharmacists to deliver pharmacist-led clinical services. That’s all we do.  Our Founder has been a pharmacist for 26 years, Our operations Director and our locum admin team have been supporting pharmacists for a combined total of 30 years.

Point 2 – Medacy are the only company that can offer opportunities in all sectors of Pharmacy

Community Pharmacy – We have been providing locum pharmacist to community pharmacy contractors since 2004

Prison  – Medacy are experts in Prison Pharmacy. I have worked as Superintendent Pharmacists for Spectrum Community Healthcare and worked in all kinds of prison from local to Maximum Security.

GP Practice – Medacy are one of the Pioneers of GP Practice Pharmacists. We worked with Heartbeat Federation GP Federation in 2014 to deliver Clinical Pharmacist services to 21 GP practices and we are proud to have been at the cutting edge of service development is this exciting sector for pharmacists

PCN  – Medacy work with PCN across the country to deliver Pharmacist-led Clinical Services

CCG  – Medacy have worked with CCGs to deliver exciting projects on Anti- Coagulation, Care Home Support and Medicines Optimisation

Pharmaceutical Industry – Medacy work with Pharma partners on consultancy work and the delivery of Pharma-Funded Clinical Projects across the UK

Hospital – Medacy are suppliers of Pharmacists on the National Clinical Staffing Framework to the NHS

Point 3 – Medacy offer Clinical and Recruitment Services

Medacy offers two distinct services:

Medacy Recruitment Services

We is famous for it’s locum agency which started trading in 2004. We have placed locum pharmacists into circa 100,000 placements in all sectors of Pharmacy and we recruit pharmacist to fill permanent vacancies too.

Medacy Clinical Services

In my opinion. Pharmacists has always been held back by the buildings we work in. Building services around the patient and using Clinical Pharmacist to deliver services close to home just makes sense. Medacy work with Practices, PCNs and CCG to re-design medicines related services for patients. Let us stop dragging acutely unwell patients to hospitals when they can be cared for close to home. It ,makes sense for the patients. clinical pharmacist and financially it makes sense to the NHS

I said I would be balanced so here goes ….. other providers of Clinical Services do exists
