Medical Receptionist Administration Certificate

Medical Receptionist Administration Course

When entering any medical clinic, we may think that the first person whom we see is a doctor or a nurse. However, in most cases, you are probably going to see a medical receptionist first. These receptionists are important, as they are responsible for scheduling appointments, retrieving patient records and many other behind-the-scenes duties. People who choose to become medical receptionists often benefit by gaining experience in a medical setting, gaining insight into the medical field and being able to help doctors and patients. While the role may not offer the pay of a doctor or nurse, medical receptionists are crucial to enable medical facilities to run efficiently.

This course will go into detail on what a medical receptionist is and what they do. Firstly, we discuss a few qualifications that can help you learn the necessary skills that are required of medical receptionists. Next, we discuss the desired personal characteristics, skills and benefits of becoming a medical receptionist. Finally, we provide you with a few steps to help get you started, and a few words of advice and tips.

  • About a few types of qualifications that you can gain for a medical receptionist position
  • The personal characteristics that employers often look for in a potential medical receptionist
  • The duties and skills that are required of a medical receptionist
  • Tip and advice to help you become a medical receptionist

Thanks to this course I can take my career in a new and improved direction. After sustaining injuries where I have to be wheelchair bound I thought career prospects were slim. But now I have qualified I have hope again.

This course is amazingly well structured in such a way that it enabled me to memorise everything and in my own time, and explained in terms everyone could understand, the modules were short and to the point with very little un-needed information and at a great price too!

Online support staff were amazing they couldn't help enough. Messages were sent within 20 minutes and were extremely accurate. The final exam was easy and gave me plenty of time to complete with 30 questions and 30 minutes to answer (although only 10 minutes were needed) after ordering my certificate it was delivered within 48 hours. It looks amazing and the quality is great too.

A fantastic start for a new SENCo or a nice refresher for one who has been around for a while, worth every penny and has helped immensely!

I have really enjoyed doing this course because I could do it in my own time and there is loads of information and downloads to help.

Sharon Hart

Received course work as a gift from my spouse. Each module was easy to follow, great content and exceptional graphics and illustrations.

I especially appreciated that I was able to take the modules at my own pace, according to the schedule that fit within my work and free time. Tests where 5 questions based at the end of each module and a 50 question test at the completion of all mode’s.

A wonderful experience, would highly recommend.

My son has Aspergers Syndrome, so when this course Autism Awareness Diploma came up with 90% off just after Christmas, I thought I would like to do it. There was no pressure on myself and progressed at my own pace, the course is very informative with lots of hints and tips. The process of going through the Modules and assignments was also very easy to do. The cost of the course was expensive if I hadn't had 90% off. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending New Skills Academy courses to other people for their informative and ease of usage. I really enjoyed it.
