expediting patient pathways where necessary.
To work as part of a multi-disciplinary clinical team maintaining efficient systems and processes relating to patient attendances and admissions. This includes maintaining accurate computerised and manual records, inputting registration and waiting list data onto the Trust’s computer systems and ensuring that all patient records are kept up to date with any details relevant to the patient’s attendance and/or admission.
To provide administrative support to consultant/clinical teams including the management of clinician’s diaries/timetables. Confirmation of consultants’ timetables to ensure that appropriate
cover is available for all clinical sessions.
