We are excited to offer a fantastic opportunity to join the Disclosure Team, based at Kernow Building, Redruth as a Disclosure Officer. Please note the role is office based due to the nature of the role.
The post holder will be required to manage and prioritise their day-to-day workload and use their initiative, without direct supervision, for routine tasks. This will require good organisational skills and the ability to work to tight deadlines and with frequent interruptions.
This job is currently only open to people who already work for the NHS in Cornwall or the Isles of Scilly.
We are committed to supporting our dedicated staff, so only current employees of the following organisations can apply:
Cornwall Foundation Trust
Royal Cornwall Hospitals NHS Trust
Cornwall and Isles of Scilly Integrated Care Board
If you do not currently work for one of these NHS organisations, your application will not be considered at this time.
The candidate will be working as a member of the Disclosure Team who are responsible for the administration of requests for access to the data held by the Trust, specifically in accordance with The Data Protection Act 2018, Access to Health Records Act 1990 and Access to Medical Reports Act 1988. This role involves the challenge of meeting deadlines on a daily basis, processing very sensitive and sometimes distressing information and dealing with members of the public and other organisations.
We’re an NHS community and mental health provider Trust based in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. We deliver community and hospital-based care to improve people’s physical and mental health. We also provide specialist support to people with dementia or a learning disability.
We are a people organisation and people matter to us. As part of the team, you’ll help support the health and wellbeing of the people who live and visit this beautiful part of the UK.
Over 5,000 people make up the Trust. This includes doctors, nurses, therapists, plus admin and support staff.
We work in people’s homes, in community clinics and bases. Some staff work from one of our 10 community hospitals. Our aspiration is to have great people, provide great care, be a great place to work and a great partner.
Approximately 568,000 people live here. A third of people who live in Cornwall are supported by acute hospital services in Devon. As a result, we also work closely with our partners in Devon. In the summer, and during other holidays lots of people choose to visit the area. This increase the numbers of people who use out services.
