Summary
Our fully equipped opticians for homeless people is at Gloucester City Mission. Full training given no optical experience needed.Detailed description
We need someone to manage the clinic. You do not need opticians experience for this role, just an ability to learn the practicalities and procedures of running an opticians clinic and ability in using online systems.
You will start your work as a clinic assistant to learn the ropes. Supporting the optometrists, you will be welcoming patients, registering them, helping them to choose spectacles, ordering, fitting and repairing glasses.
Soon, you will take on the wider practicalities and administration of running a clinic, as clinic manager. You will train and support the clinic assistants to ensure all administrative procedures are completed and the clinic runs effectively from week to week.
Initially you will need to attend weekly to learn how the clinic runs and to supervise new volunteers. Ideally, you will continue to attend every week, although your aim will be to train up a deputy and team of assistants who are able to run the clinic day-to-day. Then, you can attend to support the team as necessary and check the clinic is as it should be.
