Summary

As a ward clerk you will be expected to provide comprehensive clerical support to Avery ward, enabling the effective and efficient delivery of mental health. This will include responding to telephone calls, taking messages and handing over information accurately and in a timely fashion. You will respond to our patients in an honest, non-judgmental and open manner. You will consider how you feel patients would want to be looked after and cared for, whilst also reflecting on whether you would want a friend or family member to be cared for in this environment. It is therefore very important to demonstrate a commitment to equal opportunities for everyone. You will effectively provide and implement core operational administration functions, for example undertaking word processing, undertaking photocopying, distributing post, maintain accurate databases and records as directed by the Ward Manager and undertaking scanning of information onto RIO, to ensure ward team/service information requirements are met for the assessment of care needs for all of all patients. We will expect you to always respond to patients in a sensitive manner, with regard to their age, sexuality, culture, race, gender, ethnicity, religion and disability.
