Description

An opening has become available for a friendly and enthusiastic Ward Clerk covering Wards 1, 15 and the Birthing Centre at NSECH.

Although the post is based at NSECH in extreme circumstances you may be asked to provide cover at one of our other sites within the service.

To provide a reception service, acting as first point of contact on the telephone or face to face, for patients, visitors and other healthcare professionals.

We manage three major locality hospitals at North Tyneside, Wansbeck and Hexham, plus a number of smaller community hospitals and clinics from Tynemouth to Berwick on Tweed, in addition to our state-of-the-art Northumbria Specialist Emergency Care Hospital, the first of its kind in England.

We also care for people in their homes and provide services from facilities in local communities such as health centres.

We give people greater choice and control over their care to help them to live independently at home and avoid hospital admission where appropriate.

High quality patient care is at the heart of everything we do and we strive to ensure every single patient and service user has an exceptional experience with us.

We have one of the most extensive patient experience programmes of any trust in England.

To facilitate good communication with other wards and departments involved in patient care or ward/departmental functioning.
To input data regarding all admissions, transfers and discharges onto Patient Administration System.
To provide an efficient administration and clerical service to unit staff, visitors and patients.
