You will need to work accurately and methodically, meet deadlines, show attention to detail, work as part of a team but use your own initiative.  Can you work with all types of people and be helpful and reassuring when dealing with patients?

You will need to be flexible and pro-active, able to respond and adapt to the varying demands and changing circumstances in our busy department.
