Description

Within STW, the ICB, SaTH & SCHT are committed to integrating to provide improved seamless pathways of care for patients.

This is an exciting time to join Shropshire Community Health NHS Trust as we work in partnership with The Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital NHS Trust - our Acute Partners.


This is your opportunity to join us and be part of the next step in this journey with the introduction of our community sub-acute wards.

We are recruiting to a variety of roles working as part of an innovative MDT. You will be working for Shropshire Community Health NHS Trust with your base at The Royal Shrewsbury Hospital.


This is an exciting opportunity to make a difference to the care of patients enabling them to step down to their normal place of residence faster.

To provide full administration and clerical support to the ward multidisciplinary team.

To be the first point of contact in welcoming and answering patient/visitor queries on the ward.


To take a lead role in maintaining accurate patient notes and data on the trust electronic patient administration systems at all times.

Answer telephones, dealing courteously, efficiently and sympathetically with calls and personal enquiries, referring to nursing staff as appropriate.


Provide a reference point for the rehabilitation ward for all queries connected with the ward, dealing with these enquiries in the first instance and referring them appropriately where necessary pleasantly, efficiently and sympathetically.

At the discretion of the nurse in charge, communicate appropriately with other departments e.g. telephoning patient referrals to consultants, follow up ultrasound, x-ray results etc.


Shropshire Community Health NHS Trust provides community-based health services for adults and children in Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin, and some services in surrounding areas too.

These range from district nursing, health visiting and running four community hospitals through to providing very specialist community care through talented and dedicated staff.


Patients, carers and the public play a vital role in helping us to develop and improve our services and we are constantly looking for ways to work with local communities, patients and the public to innovate and improve.

Have a look at the Have Your Say section of our website to find out how you can feed back your experiences and help us to continually improve.

Shropshire Community Health NHS Trust is an exciting place to work. It offers a wide range of employment opportunities for many people.
