Why work for Provide Wellbeing Ltd

Provide Wellbeing Ltd is an organisation that exists to bridge the gap between private healthcare and the NHS.  

At Provide Wellbeing Ltd, we provide both NHS and self-pay healthcare services. Our self-pay route is there to fill a gap where people are unable to access NHS services as they are not eligible, they want to choose to be seen rather than waiting, or they live in areas where certain services aren’t provided by the NHS.

We want all of our customers to be able to say they felt cared for as an individual, and they felt truly listened to and respected.

Job overview

You will provide effective clinical leadership to ensure a safe pathway for patients through the clinic, ensuring conformity with CQC regulation and assisting in the delivery of evidence-based, patient-centered care.

  • Maintain close liaison with the Business Support Officers to ensure availability of drugs, consumable supplies and equipment.
  • Assist in the processing of patient test results
  • Assist in the triage of patients who make post-operative enquiries.
  • Adhere to Clinic protocols and policies and assist in their periodic review.
  • Support any clinical aspects of incidents/comments/complaints from patients and relatives in accordance with the organisation’s Complaints Procedure, managing the implementation and review of actions and learning points.
  • Assess and provide clinical supervision of permanent colleagues, monitoring the level and standard of work undertaken and supporting as appropriate.
  • Provide leadership, where appropriate, to other members of the clinical team (i.e. HCA and Minor Ops Assistants), supporting recruitment, relevant induction, training and ensuring performance is in line with Policy and Procedures and meets the Provide Wellbeing quality standards. Line management where relevant.
  • Review and develop clinical aspects of patient literature.
