Meet Sarah

North East Regional Clinical Manager

How would you summarise your role?

I manage 5 clinics with a team of 30 Sonographers and Clinical Assistants. I ensure all clinics are fully compliant, staffed and managed.

How long have you worked with Ultrasound Direct?  

12 years

What does a typical day look like for you?                

Every day is different which is what I love about the role. When I’m in clinic I work as a Clinical Assistant meeting clients, ensuring their scan runs smoothly, assisting the Sonographer as and when needed.  When I’m on admin duties I visit all of our North East clinics ensuring all cleaning, checks, banking and other duties have been completed, carrying out weekly and monthly checks. I attend meetings and interact regularly with Senior Management to discuss ongoing changes or improvements to our services.

What do you look forward to when coming to work?   

I love interacting with staff and clients alike, I love the variety of scans and services we offer and no two days are alike.  I love the relationship I build with clients who visit us numerous times during their pregnancy. I love feeling part of such a special time in their life, being able to offer advice, support and reassurance in what can sometimes be a worrying time.

How would you describe the culture at Ultrasound Direct? 

The culture is one of support, team work, professionalism and progression.

What makes you happiest about working at this company?  

The people, both staff and clients alike, and the variety my role offers me. I love the mix of clinical and organisational as well as management responsibilities.

What stands out about Ultrasound Direct as a place to work? 

Knowing you are appreciated and trusted to carry out your role without being micromanaged but supported and appreciated.

If you could describe Ultrasound Direct in one word, what would it be? 

Family, caring, supportive, trusting, progressive, professional...couldn’t pick just one so gave you a few!

Would you recommend Ultrasound Direct to a friend looking for a job?  

Definitely!
