A Clinical Pharmacist is a highly trained medication expert who works as part of the healthcare team to ensure safe and effective use of medicines. In New Zealand, Clinical Pharmacists have advanced training in pharmacology and patient care, allowing them to assess prescriptions, provide medication advice, and support patients with managing their medications, particularly for long-term conditions.
At Tend, our Clinical Pharmacists work alongside doctors, Nurse Practitioners, and nurses to optimise your treatment. They can review and adjust medications, provide advice on side effects, help with complex medication plans, and answer any questions you may have. By having Clinical Pharmacists as part of our care team, we ensure you get the right medication, at the right dose, with the right support.
