Hospital Pharmacy Undergraduate Placement

This placement is exclusively for undergraduate pharmacy students and offers a valuable opportunity to gain insight into the role of a hospital pharmacy team in patient care.

During the placement, students will:

• Shadow pharmacists and pharmacy technicians in a ward environment, observing medicines reconciliation on admission and discharge, patient counselling, and the provision of pharmaceutical care advice to healthcare professionals.
• Gain an overview of dispensary activities, including controlled drug dispensing and dispensing for discharge.
• Observe specialist pharmacists in their roles to understand the breadth of hospital pharmacy practice.

This experience will provide pharmacy undergraduates with a well-rounded understanding of how hospital pharmacy supports patient care and multidisciplinary teams.
