Social Worker at Lifecrest Medical Services Ltd

Location: Lagos Island, Lagos

Job Description

• On a very basic level, hospital social workers act as liaisons for patients such that the patient and their family can better navigate the health care system, which can sometimes be quite confusing. In that regard, hospital social workers are a primary point of contact for patients and their families about policies, procedures, and services both in the hospital and after the patient’s release.
• Sometimes, hospital social workers even serve as a resource about the illness or injury itself. For example, in larger medical facilities, hospital social workers might specialize in working with a specific population, like patients that have cancer, or they might specialize in a certain department, like the emergency room.

Qualifications

• Candidates should possess a Bachelor's degree with 1 - 2 years work experience.
