Nursing Station Clerk​/NSC Trainee Neurocritical Care Unit Evening Shift

Overview

Nursing Station Clerks 1 are assigned to either inpatient or outpatient units where there is daily contact with patients. This team member greets visitors and directs them to appropriate locations; answers telephones; performs data entry activities; maintains daily and clinical logs; prepares, updates, and maintains patient charts and files; fills out medication tickets and pharmacy requisitions; mails patient letters; and delivers supplies and records to an assigned unit.

This title is part of the New York Hiring for Emergency Limited Placement Statewide Program (NY HELPS). For the duration of the NY HELPS Program, this title may be filled via a non-competitive appointment, which means no examination is required but all candidates must meet the minimum qualifications of the title for which they apply. In May 2024, if a temporary NY HELPS employee is satisfactorily performing in the position, the appointment will be changed to permanent non-competitive.

At a future date (within one year of permanent appointment), it is expected employees hired under NY HELPS will have their non-competitive employment status converted to competitive status, without having to compete in an examination. While serving permanently in a NY HELPS title, employees may take part in any promotion examination for which they are qualified.

Qualified candidates will demonstrate excellent communication skills, interpersonal skills, knowledge and understanding of patient care, and effectively respond to changing patient needs by making decisions based on ethical principles and adhering to our high standard of excellence.
