Job Description

The role of a patient referral call handler is extremely rewarding but can also be emotionally challenging. Some of the referrals you can expect to receive are from patient's families and healthcare professionals who are in end of life or going to start palliative care.

Your role is the start of their patient journey, and this involves taking referrals from patients / their families or their health carer and accurately recording their details and allocating them to the correct healthcare service.

This is done mostly over incoming calls, but you can also expect to receive referrals electronically from GPs.
