    • Ensure that the clinical triage process for each call received is factual and recorded accurately, to the fullest extent possible.
    • Ensure ICT systems are used appropriately, and report systems failures to the Contact Centre Supervisor. In the event of a systems failure all staff are required to initiate any appropriate steps in line with standard operating procedures, to support the Contact Centre in maintaining business continuity.
