This is your chance to train to be a office based full time Health Advisor in our 111 call centre, handling calls from members of the public. You’ll learn how to use a state-of-the-art triage tool called NHS Pathways to assess patients over the phone and direct them to the most appropriate care. Although these are not emergency calls, you’ll also need to be prepared to deal with emotional, distressing or life-threatening scenarios and to arrange for 999 services if required.
The extensive training equips you with valuable skills and includes assessments. You must attend every training day. This is followed by a further eight weeks’ support before you are signed off to work on your own.

Monday 3rd April - Full Time - Monday to Friday, (9:00am-5:00pm) for 4 weeks
