Crynodeb
The East Dorset Medical Examiner Service, hosted by UHD, is part of a vital national initiative introduced by NHS England. Our service provides independent scrutiny of all deaths not investigated by the Coroner, ensuring transparency, accuracy, and compassion in examining the circumstances and causes of death, both in-hospital and in the local community.
We are looking for a Medical Examiner Officer to join our friendly, collaborative team, delivering a professional and compassionate service. They will help the Medical Examiner to review the circumstances and causes of the death and will work closely, yet independently from other services involved in patient care.
It is a challenging role combining some medical terminology/ clinical knowledge and skilled communication. Ideally the applicant will be familiar with coroner, medical examiner and death certification processes.
Experience of bereavement care would be beneficial as Medical Examiner Officers are required to interact sensitively with the bereaved, handling emotive and challenging situations. The post holder must exhibit exceptional attention to detail, strong administrative capabilities, and effective communication skills when interacting with all stakeholders.
This role offers an opportunity to make a meaningful difference by providing vital support to bereaved families and helping to maintain the integrity of the death certification process.
