Hospital Pharmacist and Pharmacy Technician Jobs

If you’re a Pharmacist or Pharmacy Technician ready to take your career to the next level, Queen’s may be the perfect fit for you. Do you want to make a real difference in the lives of patients while working in a hospital environment? Queen’s relies on pharmacy professionals to ensure that patients receive the right medications and experience positive outcomes.

Hospital Pharmacists are critical in diagnosing, evaluating, and recommending medication therapies to treat patients. They help avoid adverse reactions in patients to prescriptions and ensure that doctors’ drug orders do not interact with other medications.

Hospital Pharmacy Technicians fill prescriptions, create compound medications for intravenous (IV) use, and support Pharmacists’ needs. Unlike retail positions where you interact with customers, Clinical Pharmacy Technicians work closely with hospital staff, enabling you to gain advanced knowledge of medical terminology and diagnoses.

Employee Benefits

As a pharmacist at Queen’s, you will receive the following benefits:

Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) plans from Queen’s give you medical, surgical, and hospital coverage. With unlimited lifetime maximums, our PPOs also come with a robust prescription drug plan and vision benefits.

Queen’s participates in the Hawaii Dental Service plan, which provides coverage for routine exams and cleaning, along with other dental services like Preventative Care, Oral Surgery, Restorative Dentistry, Endodontics, Periodontics, and Prosthodontics.

Queen’s covers eligible health expenses that fall outside of your health insurance plan, including co-payments, deductibles, and other out-of-pocket expenses you might incur.

Many of our employees caring for dependents on their own or with working spouses require care for their children or elderly dependents. Queen’s may offer reimbursement for day care fees, preschool, and after-school care.

You may also qualify for our dependent spending account as an employee caring for any dependents with mental or physical disabilities, or for an elderly dependent.

As an employee of The Queen’s Health Systems, you are eligible to enroll in our 401(k) retirement plan. You can elect to have up to 100% of your paycheck deducted and placed into a tax-sheltered retirement savings account. Queen’s offers matching contributions.

You may also qualify for our dependent spending account as an employee caring for any dependents with mental or physical disabilities, or for an elderly dependent.

Paid Time Off (PTO) is an important part of our benefits package. In addition to the ten holidays per year that are automatically included in your PTO bank, you accumulate additional PTO according to your seniority.

In addition to PTO, you may be eligible to accrue time for Extended Sick Leave (ESL). ESL is kept in a separate bank from your PTO hours.

Queen’s life insurance plans provide basic term life coverage for non-bargaining, full-time employees. You can also purchase Supplemental and Dependent Life Plans to augment your existing policy.

Our long term disability insurance gives you a portion of your income if you become disabled or unable to work. We base the benefit on your pre-disability monthly salary and coordinate it with any other income benefits you might receive (e.g. social security and worker’s compensation).

We provide accidental death and dismemberment insurance to be paid to your chosen beneficiary if you pass away or are injured as the result of an on-the-job accident.
