Clinic Assistant
7 months ago
**Who are we?**
Newmedica are one of the leading providers of NHS ophthalmology services in England, providing
outpatients appointments, diagnostic testing and eye surgery. We aim to change lives through
better sight and eye health.
We care for thousands of NHS and private patients a year in our specialist eye clinics across the
country. We have significant growth plans over the next few years as we look to establish a national
footprint and open many new sites across the UK.
We are thrilled to say that following an independently conducted survey of Newmedica colleagues,
we have been certified as a Great Place to Work®. This is a global benchmark that recognises
employers who create an outstanding employee experience.
**Role overview**
We are looking for a new Clinic Assistant to join our Oxfordshire site. This will be 40 hours over 5 days per week. In the future, this may include weekends on a rota basis.
Our Clinic Assistants are the face of Newmedica - they’re often amongst the first people that our
patients interact with on clinic visits and so having a welcoming, friendly, empathetic approach is
vital.
It’s a busy role - you’ll be seeing a number of patients each day to take them through a range of
diagnostic tests. These will be passed onto a senior clinician to ascertain if surgery or further
treatment is required. You’ll be using a variety of different equipment and systems so we’re looking
for someone who is comfortable using systems and is fairly tech savvy.
The thought of eye surgery can be a daunting prospect for patients to deal with, so our Clinic
Assistants need to be able to put patients at ease. They also need strong communication skills to be
able to explain the purpose of the different tests to ensure the patient understands their
treatment.
This is a great role to progress your clinical skills or to take the first step on a clinical career
path. Newmedica is committed to the growth and development of all our colleagues and the Clinic
Assistant is a great platform to potentially explore a career in diagnostic (clinic) or theatre teams
**What skills and experience do I need?**
We’ll provide training so experience isn’t always needed, but the following things will be
advantageous:
- Previous experience of working with patients or in a customer facing role
- Knowledge of eye physiology and treatment or a keen interest to build knowledge in this area
- A competent user of all Office 365 programmes & comfortable working on new systems such as patient record systems or diagnostic programmes.
- An excellent grasp of the English language both verbally and in written format
- Experience of dealing with a variety of data for example patient records, GP and patient correspondence and diagnostic test results
- A good team player - happy to jump in and support others when required
**What we’re offering**
- A salary of £24,000
- 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays
- A company pension scheme
- Access to a range of benefits including free eye tests, discounted or free glasses, a free 24/7
- well-being/counselling/advice service and a retail/technology discount scheme.
- A cycle to work scheme
- An environment where your learning and development is supported through a range of various learning tools and courses.
- Working with a friendly multi-disciplinary team passionate about improving the lives of our
- patients
- A bright, spacious and modern working environment, built to the highest standards
