Objectifs du programme
The Administrative Support in Clinical Settings program of study prepares students for the duties of administrative support clerk in clinical settings. Administrative support clerks in clinical settings must perform a variety of administrative tasks, such as: welcoming users, providing and checking information, responding to information requests, managing files and user records, and placing orders and service requests. To carry out their tasks, administrative support clerks in clinical settings must communicate using medical terminology and make use of information technologies.
Administrative support clerks in clinical settings work in hospital centres (CH), residential and long-term care centres (CHSLD), local community service centres (CLSC), child and youth protection centres (CPEJ), clinics, and any other public or private health and social services institutions in the following sectors: youth, mental health and addiction, care and support for seniors, and the hospital system. Administrative support clerks act as conduits of information and, as such, assume a significant part of the administrative tasks inherent to the clinical interventions that health and social services professionals must perform.
