 Technician work
Hi,
Whats the likelihood of getting hospital technician work in the UK if you are a foreign trained/licensed pharmacist? I'll be moving over from Canada in the next few months and am trying to figure out what my options are in terms of employment (seeing as I won't have a UK license for at least the first 2 years (!!?)).
Over here, we actually like to take on foreign-trained pharmacists in my hospital based on the likelihood that they may want to stay on as pharmacists once they are licensed. Is this the case in the UK? I understand that mandatory registration of pharmacy technicians will likely begin in 2009 or therabouts. Will foreign-trained pharmacists still need to take the relavent training courses?
Thanks!
