Patient Admin Clerk, Maternity Admissions
Role summary
Written by MyIslandJob from the job title and employer. See the employer's page for the full description.
The Patient Admin Clerk supports maternity admissions by registering patients, checking demographic and referral information, arranging appointments, updating electronic records, handling telephone and face-to-face enquiries, and coordinating with midwives, clinicians and other administrative teams. Applicants are generally expected to have good general education, accurate keyboard and data-entry skills, basic IT ability, strong organisation and excellent communication. Previous NHS, hospital or administrative experience is helpful, particularly in a busy, confidential environment. The successful candidate should be polite, reliable, discreet and able to work calmly under pressure while following information-governance procedures. Flexibility, attention to detail and a caring, professional approach are important when supporting expectant mothers and families.
Can I work in the UK?
Never pay anyone for a visa or a job offer. A real employer pays the permit costs and never asks you for money.
How it works
How it works: NHS nurses, doctors and allied health get a Health and Care Worker visa (about 3 weeks, no health surcharge); care workers lost this route on 22 July 2025.
Before you apply: Nurses, doctors and most allied health staff must be registered or licensed locally before they start: expect checks on your degree and licence, often an English test, and often an exam or an assessment. Ask the employer who handles it and how long it takes. Most pharma and device office jobs do not need it.
Watch for: Pay follows the NHS pay bands and is usually at least GBP 25,000. Nurses and allied health also need UK professional registration; care workers cannot be sponsored from abroad.
