  Interacting with patients is at the heart of my role, and I take great pride in delivering excellent customer service while maintaining patient confidentiality. One of my key responsibilities is dispensing and labeling various types of prescriptions, both from the NHS and private sources. I am experienced in accurately interpreting prescriptions and selecting the appropriate medications, dosages, and quantities. Attention to detail is crucial to ensure that patients receive the correct medications, and I consistently prioritize accuracy and safety in the dispensing process. Efficient stock control is essential to the functioning of a busy dispensary, and I take pride in managing this aspect effectively. I am skilled in inventory management, ensuring that medication stocks are maintained at appropriate levels to meet patient needs. By monitoring stock levels and coordinating with suppliers, I contribute to the efficient flow of prescriptions and reduce the risk of medication shortages. Throughout my work as a dispenser, I have honed my information gathering skills. By actively engaging with patients and asking relevant questions, I ensure that I have a comprehensive understanding of their medical history and any specific requirements. This enables me to provide tailored advice and recommendations, promoting patient safety and adherence to prescribed treatments. I understand the importance of patient confidentiality and strictly adhere to legal and ethical guidelines in safeguarding sensitive information. Maintaining the privacy and trust of patients is paramount in creating a comfortable and secure environment. Overall, my experience as a dispenser in a fast-paced community pharmacy has equipped me with strong interpersonal skills, attention to detail, and a commitment to patient-centered care. I am dedicated to ensuring the efficient and accurate dispensing of prescriptions while prioritizing patient safety and confidentiality. Show less
