Do you have good attention to detail? Do you have half a day a week for the next 3 months to locate files to be archived and scan them on to our database?
Purpose of this role
The safe and accurate archiving of patient records is an important requirement for us as an organisation, to ensure that we are complying with our legal and data protection responsibilities and that patient data can be retrieved as necessary.
We have a backlog of files that need archiving and need some help from a volunteer on a short-term basis to help us clear the backlog.
Main tasks
• locate the material to be archived and ensure that it is currently being stored appropriately while we do this backlog project.
• establish whether or not it has been scanned onto our clinical database
• order and appropriate number of boxes for storage of the material
• contact the archiving company we use for barcodes or activate the barcodes that have already been issued to RGP
• box up material
• ensure the contents of each box is listed on a central record (already in place) allocate a bar code and log the contents.
• arrange for the boxes to be collected from whichever RGP site.
• check that all has been collected.
What are we looking for?
• someone with an extremely good attention to detail and the ability to follow a clear process
• ideally someone who is happy to travel between our 3 main sites to identify and box up the material
• this will involve moving files and boxes around, so will need a certain level of physical fitness
Training and support
• there will be a named line manager who will provide ongoing support
• there will be some mandatory training that you will need to complete at the start of your volunteering with us and then periodically afterwards as refresher training
• your line manager will organise training specific to your role

About Rennie Grove Peace Hospice Care
When serious illness strikes, we're here to help people in our community get the best out of every day. From the moment of diagnosis our specialist teams work with each individual to provide the compassionate care they need, in the place that's best for them. This is what we call: extraordinary care, anywhere.
We know that life-limiting illness doesn't just affect the individual, so we care for those around each patient, too – both during an illness and through bereavement.
It takes a whole community to provide this care to everybody who needs it. Our volunteers, supporters and champions in the community are the driving force behind everything we do.
The organiser has marked this opportunity as filled. Applications are closed. You can find other volunteering opportunities here.
