Transcriptionist

Job summary

Part Time & Full Time Contracts Available!

An exciting opportunity has arisen within our Transcription team to recruit some new Transcriptionists. Our Team receive dictations from clinical staff working primarily with patients accessing mental health services. We type or proof read and edit these dictations and add the finished script to the patient's medical record, ready for the clinician to validate.

Our Transcriptionists work from their own homes, with our equipment, and we provide a 24 hour service, across all seven days of the week.

For this recruitment we are only looking to hear from applicants who are able to work one or two nightshifts per week, combined with some daytime hours.

Although our Transcriptionists are home workers, the Team Leads regularly work from Monkwearmouth Hospital in Sunderland, Tyne and Wear, so applicants must be able to travel to this site to collect and return equipment, and for meetings / other ad hoc reasons as needed. We anticipate a maximum of 4 visits to site per year but this could vary, therefore the ability to travel here independently is essential. Applicants must have a fast and reliable internet connection and space within their home to allow comfortable, effective and safe home working.

Main duties of the job

The main duties of the job;

Audio typing (at least 50wpm - this will be tested as part of the interview process)

Use of our patient information system (Rio) and other systems to save data into patient records

Shift work

Ideally, you will have experience of working in the NHS, be able to work both independently and as part of a team, with a good understanding of English grammar, a working knowledge of Microsoft Word and Outlook, and be confident with IT equipment. Accuracy, dedication and flexibility are essential as this is a 24/7 service operating 365 days per year with set turnaround times for work and high quality standards.
