A one day masterclass – Limited availability!

Date: 23rd October 2015

CMG Professional Training are hosting a one day MEDICAL SECRETARY refresher course which will ensure you are working to ‘best practice’ standards and renew your confidence in dealing with patients and colleagues alike.

If you plan and coordinate a clinical or staff diary, manage a busy reception, schedule appointments, manage fees and invoices, and of course deal with patients and relatives, you’ll need a broad range of skills and the ability to manage your time and resources effectively. Perhaps you are new to your role or you feel your role has grown over the last few years; perhaps you feel patients’ expectations have risen and resources have been reduced.

 

Medical secretaries and administration staff are often the first impression from the patient’s perspective, and make a vital contribution to the patient experience. The role is one of surprising responsibility – can be both challenging and exciting.

This one day course is a great way to update your industry skills and add to your Continuing Professional Development. It may also help when going forward for promotion or higher paid role.

Participants can expect a practical workshop packed with case studies, group and individual exercises and lively discussion.  The workshop aims to include each participant’s unique needs as far as possible, so please discuss your specific training needs with CMG on booking.

  • The evolving role of the medical secretary
  • Patient needs, clinician needs – managing complex (and occasionally conflicting) demands
  • Communication and confidentiality – managing information in a medical environment
  • Your role in reducing risk
  • Time management
  • Managing stress in healthcare environments
  • Correspondence – structure, format, editing
  • Billing systems and debt collection
  • Getting the best from your IT
  • Effective handling of patient complaints and problems
  • Signposts for further learning

This one day CMG Master Class will be of particular interest to anyone currently working in the role of Medical Secretary, anybody wishing to become a medical secretary or who like to know what is involved in working as a medical secretary including medical terminology and the responsibilities, practice and structure of the various medical departments in hospitals and GP surgeries.

On completion you will receive your CMG MasterClass Certificate as well as your CPD Certificate containing 5 Structured CPD Points.
