You will also process prescriptions and maintain accurate, confidential patient records.
We are looking for:
· Excellent Communication: A warm, clear, and polite telephone manner with the ability to handle delicate situations with empathy and patience.
· Calm Under Pressure: Ability to multitask and remain composed in a fast-paced environment.
· Tech-Savvy: Strong IT skills and/or a quick learner (experience with clinical systems like EMIS or SystemOne is a bonus).
· Discretion: A strict understanding of patient confidentiality and GDPR.
· Salary: £13.00 per hour
