What are hospital support staff?

Hospital support staff are personnel who assist in the smooth operation of healthcare facilities by performing non-clinical tasks. Their roles include administrative work, patient transport, cleaning, food service, and maintaining equipment. While they do not provide direct medical care, their responsibilities are essential for ensuring a safe, efficient, and comfortable environment for patients and healthcare professionals. Hospital support staff play a crucial role in supporting doctors, nurses, and other medical staff so they can focus on patient care.
