**Pharmacist PRN (Mon-Fri Day Shift) – Ambulatory Care (Community Care Clinics)** Pharmacist in our department are distinct and very different from what you would find in a regular retail or hospital pharmacy. The pharmacist collaborates directly with a team of embedded pharmacy technicians, and at some locations pharmacist residents and pharmacy students as well in our community care clinics as part of our "Pharmily" to provide direct patient care. Our community care clinics provide outpatient care to underinsured, uninsured, and impoverished patients by utilizing multidisciplinary teams and clinical personnel. Those multidisciplinary teams also include the chronic disease department (nurses/community health workers), behavioral health department (social workers/students), and community navigation department (community health workers). Our pharmacists work under a collaborative practice agreement with our providers to deliver chronic medication management to patients for diabetes, hypertension, and other chronic disease states. Our teams also assist patients with medication affordability, education, reconciliation, adherence, and smoking cessation consultations. In addition, they also offer patients and providers formulary and pricing information as a part of our efforts to help with medication affordability. Prescription assistance programs (PAPs) are another important resource we use extensively because the majority of our patients are either underinsured or uninsured. We use a database to track PAPs, and therefore some familiarity with PAP programs is preferred. Our ideal candidate must be able to work well with a wide range of individuals, be flexible when faced with change, have outstanding soft and communication skills, and naturally be able to solve problems. Our clinics are located throughout the DFW Metroplex (Dallas, Ft Worth, Irving, & Plano), therefore the ability and willingness to travel to all locations, have a valid driver's license, and reliable transportation are essential. The organization does provide mileage reimbursement for travel outside of your normal assigned work location. A bilingual candidate would be a plus, as over 80% of the patients we serve in our clinics speak Spanish. **JOB SUMMARY** The Pharmacist Clinical 1 PRN provides pharmaceutical care to patients in a clinical setting.
