We continue to modernise and invest in our health services to build on our strong reputation. Foundation trusts are public leaders in improving quality in health services. They are part of the NHS – yet decisions about what they do and how they do it are driven by independent boards. Boards listen to their Council of Governors and respond to the needs of their members – patients, staff and the local community.
Foundation trusts provide what the health service wants, yet are also free to invest quickly in the changes to the local community needs, in striving to be the best, and in putting their patients first.
Deliver all reception, telephone and administrative duties in a courteous and friendly manner including efficient and timely message taking.
Book patients into clinics using electronic booking systems, (SystmOne, Cerner EPR) and process discharge referrals.
Communicate with patients, the public and staff from other parts of the trust on a wide range of issues; always presenting an efficient, courteous and empathetic manner.
Take delivery of clinical and stationery supplies, including stock taking where necessary.
