Apr 2011 - Aug 2011
I became an integral part of the company’s team which delivers gastrostomy ‘button’ devices to patients at home. This required me to use database spreadsheets and Outlook to work out when to send devices to the patients. Making and dealing with phone calls from both patients and hospitals was also another aspect of the job. This role dealt with very sensitive issues and required exceptional communication skills.
