• Promote and ensure the good reputation of the hospital. Act as a positive role model, maintaining a positive attitude towards clients, their families, visitors, and staff.
• Maintain complete and accurate financial records of the hospital using both computer and manual systems.
• Operate office equipment such as fax, photocopier, and computer, and provide administrative support to the Hospital Manager as required.
• Answer the telephone and respond to all inquiries in a friendly and efficient manner.
