The work

Tasks this hire takes

A virtual assistant for podiatrists books EPC visits, recalls and the consumables list.

The podiatrist still assesses and treats.

Two jobs shape a normal week for podiatrists: Book EPC and private appointments, and check referral dates before the visit. Firms hire for that rhythm, not for an empty inbox.

  • Book EPC and private appointments

  • Check referral dates before the visit

  • Send recall reminders for review visits

  • Order consumables the podiatrist listed

  • Receipt payments in the clinic system

Book EPC and private appointments. For podiatrists, that work sits beside Cliniko or Nookal. The principal still makes the call above it.

Check referral dates before the visit. Ask each finalist for podiatrists when they last did this, and whether they did it in Cliniko or Nookal.

The brief for podiatrists should treat this as a standing job: send recall reminders for review visits. Cliniko or Nookal is where the office checks it.

Order consumables the podiatrist listed. If the hire has not used Cliniko or Nookal, the first month for podiatrists includes learning it, and the principal still reviews the output.

Receipt payments in the clinic system. For podiatrists, write down what done looks like, and who is told when it is finished.

Day one

Software in the brief

Name Cliniko or Nookal in the brief for podiatrists when the hire will use it in the first week.

Say whether The EPC referral date list is required on day one for podiatrists, or taught after the start.

A short task in HotDoc or the clinic page can be part of the interview for podiatrists, if you want to see the work.

You grant access to A consumables list. For podiatrists, the hire should have that login before week two.

  • Cliniko or Nookal

  • The EPC referral date list

  • HotDoc or the clinic page

  • A consumables list

The line

Compliance boundary

The hire does not assess feet, write notes, or change a treatment.

For podiatrists, the interview repeats the boundary above. The hire should be able to say what they will not decide.
