This will include some weekend work.The ward clerk serves as the vital administrative hub of the ward, bridging the gap between patients, relatives and medical staff.Typical duties involve managing patient records, booking appointments, answering calls and greeting visitors.Vital skills are Communication, Admin and IT. Other skills are the ability to support nursing staff of clerical duties to enable them to focus entirely on clinical care.Previous administration or patient facing experience is preferred, although full on the job NHS training is provided.
