  • You will receive phone calls, recording messages accurately, liaising with other administrative, call handlers and health professionals ensuring that suitable action is taken.
  • Effectively use the phone system to answer & redirect calls, plus wrapup a session.
  • You will maintain confidentiality at all times.
  • You will demonstrate an understanding of the importance of effective team working within a multidisciplinary team. Have the ability to adapt and use initiative as the need arises.
  • You will have good communication skills to analyse each call using active and empathetic listening (questioning and summarising), offering sensitive, age appropriate conversation.
We're an NHS community and mental health provider Trust based in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. We deliver community and hospital-based care to improve people's physical and mental health. We also provide specialist support to people with dementia or a learning disability.

We are a people organisation and people matter to us.

As part of the team, you'll help support the health and wellbeing of the people who live and visit this beautiful part of the UK.

Over 4,000 people make up the Trust. This includes doctors, nurses, therapists, plus admin and support staff.

We work in people's homes, in community clinics and bases. Some staff work from one of our 13 community hospitals.

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 area. This increases the numbers of people who use our services.
