Pharmacy Student Clinical

AHS Pharmacy Services would like you to consider joining our pharmacy team in Grande Prairie as part of the North Zone Team for your summer employment. Summer employment will commence mid-May and will finish in mid to late August. This opportunity will place you as part of a Pharmacy Team that consists of Pharmacists, as well as Pharmacy Technicians and Assistants.

Duties are primarily clinically focused, with a minimal role in drug distribution. Wherever possible, emphasis will be placed on direct patient care activities such as collection of medication histories, allergy assessments, assisting in acute care discharges and the provision of drug information. Work shifts will generally be scheduled Monday to Friday during the day, with no anticipated evening or weekend responsibilities. Duties related to the safe distribution of drugs within a hospital will also be a part of the position to gain insight into the workflows of other positions. The distribution tasks may include packaging, labeling, and filling orders within the hospital dispensary.

Have successfully completed 1st, 2nd or 3rd year of Pharmacy studies at a Pharmacy school within Canada and enrolled in the next year of the program. Additionally, not be deficient or failing any classes currently (transcripts may need to be provided).

As required.

Being a member of CSHP is an added bonus as is desire to return to work in the North Zone or having previously worked for AHS in some capacity. Maintaining a competitive GPA within your studies is also an asset.
