Requirements
We are a very busy department and you will need to be caring, organised, and motivated. An essential requirement to this post is the ability to communicate effectively within the multi-disciplinary team and with a diverse local population. We aim to continually improve the patient experience throughout our Outpatients Department and can only do this if staff communicate appropriately with all patients, carers, and visitors.
