Essential skills such as good verbal and written language and the ability to work in a fast-paced environment are required. Alongside supporting patients in clinical areas, the job will entail none clinical management and administration tasks, as well as participating in service improvement and development initiatives. The team delivers a 7 day working pattern, with a rota system to cover weekends.

As a department we offer ongoing clinical supervision and training to develop your knowledge and skills within this area of work.
