What Good Care Looks Like

Good care is specific. It is the right medication, for the right person, at the exact right time, and someone following up to make sure it actually worked.

That follow-through is where the system usually breaks down, and it is where Clarest steps in. We manage medication for patients across long-term care, assisted living, and at home, building the technology that keeps all three connected so no one gets handed off and forgotten.

None of that happens without the people doing it, which is why we hold ourselves to the same standard with our own. Paid time off increases the longer you are here, life insurance is company-paid, and for associates who enroll in our health plan, a dedicated nurse advocate and no-cost telehealth extend to eligible dependents as well. Careers here move in more directions than most people expect, and many of our leaders started in the roles we are hiring for now.

Be the pharmacist behind seamless medication delivery and exceptional care for long-term care patients

The Per Diem Pharmacist plays a vital role in ensuring medications are reviewed, verified, prepared, and delivered safely and accurately to long-term care patients. In this role, you'll oversee dispensing workflows, verify technician work, manage controlled medications, compound sterile and non-sterile products, support quality assurance efforts, and help maintain compliance with pharmacy regulations and standards. Pharmacy technicians, nurses, caregivers, long-term care facilities, healthcare providers, and ultimately the patients they serve all depend on this role's clinical expertise, attention to detail, and commitment to safe medication practices.

Unlike pharmacists in retail settings who spend much of their time serving walk-in customers, this position operates within a closed-door pharmacy dedicated exclusively to supporting long-term care communities. You'll work as part of a highly collaborative pharmacy team focused on large-scale medication fulfillment, clinical oversight, compounding, controlled substance management, and operational excellence.
