Main duties of the job

Working with NHS 111 is a demanding but highly rewarding career where you'll realise you're making a difference to patients who use the service every day.

Are you're seeking a fresh challenge or a change of work environment? Are you interested in working in a modern, fast-paced, dynamic and adaptable service that responds to the ever-evolving need of the public? Would you like to be part of a supportive team that prioritizes high-quality patient care and the continuous professional development of its staff? We're on the lookout for dependable, compassionate, and enthusiastic clinical advisors to join our motivated, friendly, and hardworking clinical team. Your role will involve calling patients to clinically access their symptoms while collaborating in a multidisciplinary team, including health advisors, nurses, paramedics, mental health practitioners, pharmacists, and more, all to ensure that each patient receives the right care, in the right place, the first time.

You need to be a good communicator with an excellent telephone manner. It is essential that you are computer literate and keen to learn new skills. You must be passionate about high quality patient care and be caring and able to remain calm under pressure.
