An exciting opportunity has arisen for a full time permanent post as a Discharge Coordinator on Ward F19.
Ward F19 is a 28 bed Trauma and Orthopaedic ward. Our patients may require further community input from varied specialist teams due to the nature of their injury. These teams can include social care and therapy services.
