Paediatric Ward Clerk

A fantastic opportunity has arisen to join the Ward Clerk team in the Child Health Department at Scarborough Hospital.

You will need to be self-disciplined, motivated and empathetic to all those you come into contact with. It is essential that you can prioritise your own workload, possess sound communication skills, work as part of a team, but also exercise initiative within set parameters.

The role involves preparing the clinic notes for the patients returning to the unit, also scanning and filing of patients notes on to the computer system (CPD). Training will be provided but the post holder must be computer literate.

All ward clerking aspects of this role will evolve over time and further opportunities are available to progress in the organisation.

The role is varied and busy - working closely with the clinical team, assisting patients and families on the Children's Ward. This role is fast paced and rewarding. You will also help to provide clerical support across the wider Child Health department. This is a great way to see and support the work in a busy hospital and offers good development opportunities, as well as the staff incentives that the NHS offers its staff.

This post may suit someone looking to return to the workplace. An example of the working pattern:
