Job Overview
As Doctors of the World UK’s Clinic, Helpline and Hospital Access Coordinator, you will reduce health inequalities by coordinating our clinic and our advice line (alongside a wider team), and by managing a caseload of people refused secondary care (hospital care or non-primary care services in the community).
You will work closely with the rest of the UK Programme Team to identify secondary care cases and will liaise with the Hospital Access Project Lead and Policy and Advocacy team to identify cases that are relevant for advocacy purposes. You will collect case studies and testimony from people directly affected by the charging regime as part of an effort to change harmful policy practices.
By enabling the organisation to better speak about what we know from our experience of providing advocacy and health services to vulnerable people struggling to access NHS secondary care, you will help effect lasting change for excluded people who are denied their right to healthcare.
