Job overview:

An opportunity has arisen for an enthusiastic, flexible and well-motivated Team Secretary/Medical Secretary to join the West Home Treatment Team and our newly commissioned Crisis Hub and Helpline based at Longreach House

Cornwall recognises our Home Treatment and Crisis service provision as a pivotal part of the acute care pathway for people with acute mental health difficulties and is investing substantially in them to improve care.

Main duties of the job:

You will be supporting a multidisciplinary team and will be involved with answering calls to the service, arranging appointments, audio typing letters, scanning, and uploading documentation onto appropriate systems, photocopying, minute taking, ordering stationary, health rosters, and some general administrative work as required.

Our aspiration is to have great people, provide great care, be a great place to work and a great partner.

Approximately 568,000 people live here. A third of people who live in Cornwall are supported by acute hospital services in Devon. As a result, we also work closely with our partners in Devon. In the summer, and during other holidays lots of people choose to visit the a
