Position: Staff Nuclear Pharmacist
Business:'Hot' Shots Nuclear Medicine, LLC - Peoria, IL
Job Description: Nuclear pharmacy embodies the professional and scientific knowledge required to improve and promote health through the safe and effective use of radiopharmaceuticals for diagnosis and therapy. A nuclear pharmacist is a licensed pharmacist who specializes and acquires advanced training in radiation physics, radiation detection and measurement, mathematics, radiopharmaceutical chemistry, radiation biology, and health physics/radiation protection.

As a member of the nuclear medicine team, a nuclear pharmacist specializes in the procurement, compounding, quality assurance testing, dispensing, and provision of radiopharmaceuticals. Providing these services requires nuclear pharmacists to engage in activities in the general domains of health and safety, provide information and consultation, monitor patient outcomes, and on occasion perform research and development.   Additionally, we are working with positron-emitting radiopharmaceuticals, and radiolabeled monoclonal antibodies for diagnosis and therapy. Finally, management, sales, marketing, regulatory compliance, and radiation safety are eventual and possible career pathways. No prior nuclear pharmacy training is required; however, an interest in a dynamic working environment, unlike any other found in pharmacy, is a must.  Knowledge of USP <797> is preferred, but training will be provided.  New graduates are encouraged to apply.  Must be a Registered Pharmacist or a Doctor of Pharmacy and licensed to practice/or eligible in the state of Illinois.  Iowa licensure or eligibility is a plus but not a requirement.
