Pembroke Ward Clerk

Are you hardworking, highly motivated and thrive in a busy environment? Do you want to be a part of a dynamic multidisciplinary team?

You will be working on Pembroke Ward, which provides care to cancer patients who need to stay overnight rather than having treatment in the Day Unit. You will work alongside the nursing team and will communicate with Consultants, pharmacy, schedulers, secretaries and of course, patients. You will meet and greet patients and relatives when they attend the unit and capture the activity on our hospital system called Lorenzo. You will be the main point of contact for the Pembroke Ward, communicating queries and relaying information. You will work with and cross cover the Pembroke Suite Administrator with regard to annual leave and sick leave. Due to the sensitivity and nature of our department, you will be polite and courteous while showing empathy at all times.
