Pharmacist

Work where every moment matters.

Every day, more than 40,000 Hartford HealthCare colleagues come to work with one thing in common: Pride in what we do, knowing every moment matters here. We invite you to become part of Connecticut’s most comprehensive healthcare network.

For more than 118 years, Backus Hospital has been the primary source of healthcare services for much of Eastern Connecticut. We are home to the only trauma center in New London and Windham counties, and are the only area hospital with LIFE STAR helicopter services. We deliver and coordinate a continuum of high-quality healthcare with the goal of improving the health of our communities.

At Hartford HealthCare, our pharmacists play a vital role in advancing our mission to deliver safe, effective, and patient-centered care. Pharmacists ensure optimal drug therapy by designing and monitoring medication regimens that improve patient outcomes and align with our commitment to continuous improvement. By directing and supporting pharmacy staff, the pharmacist maintains an optimal medication use system that upholds both patient safety and regulatory compliance.

Pharmacists contribute directly to our broader mission at HHC by:

•                          Enhancing the quality and safety of patient care.

This opportunity offers a meaningful career path for an ambitious professional who desires to make a tangible impact on patient lives while contributing to a culture of excellence.
