  • Answering the telephone, promptly.

  • excellent communication skills, with a clear and polite telephone manner,
  • ability to work in a polite, confidential and discreet manner, respecting patients at all times,
  • experience of working with the general public, being sensitive and empathic in distressing situations,
  • confidence to work as part of a team and ability to "think on your feet";

In addition to the above, the post-holder will need to:
