A career driven by continuous learning in retail pharmacy

Northwell’s pharmacy team members at Vivo Health Pharmacy, our retail pharmacy, are committed to delivering exceptional care to our patients and communities. Read on to learn more about Tim Barclay, one of Northwell’s Truly Ambitious associate clinical educators for Vivo Health Pharmacy.

Tim began his career journey at Northwell Health in 2018 as a pharmacy technician for Vivo Health Pharmacy at Lenox Hill Hospital. As a pharmacy technician, Tim focused on understanding our patients’ needs, answering their questions and providing support by working closely with their care teams.

This led Tim to transition into the role of lead pharmacy technician for the same Northwell site in 2020. In this position, he led and guided the pharmacy technicians. He also assisted in preparation, dispensing, manufacturing and repacking of medications while maintaining records, reports and ensuring workstations had sufficient inventories. Tim built strong relationships with his colleagues and other teams alike in his role. “I thrive in Vivo’s collaborative and supportive environment. My creativity is encouraged in my work on impactful projects that contribute to providing the best patient care possible,” said Tim.

Since joining Northwell, Tim has been grateful for the tools and opportunities he has received to grow in his career. “Northwell’s commitment to employee development is exceptional. I have leveraged their tuition reimbursement program to pursue my MBA, earned an Epic certification to become an Epic credentialed trainer, and utilized enrichment courses, which have been instrumental in improving my skills and creating opportunities for professional growth,” said Tim. These resources led Tim to his current role as an associate clinical educator for Vivo Health Pharmacy in Enterprise Management, where he is responsible for optimizing training across all Vivo locations by developing resources for new initiatives, system upgrades and workflows.

When asked about his favorite part of his current role, Tim shared he finds it meaningful to train team members. “It is very rewarding to collaborate with Vivo Health’s leadership to help train and create more opportunities for pharmacy technicians to succeed, mirroring my own career journey,” said Tim.
