Main duties of the job

This is a challenging but very satisfying role.

Patients rely on our care navigators to listen, advise and point them in the right direction. Often, patients themselves do not know what they need in terms of their health and it is up to a trained navigator to support them. Our team prides itself on the care and customer service we offer. Our access to appointments is excellent and prompt, but we rely on our navigators to ensure that the right person is seen at the right time by the right clinician (not necessarily the doctor!) This takes tact and diplomacy as well as patience.
