EPR Trainer

Fixed term, 37.5 hours per week

There has never been a better time to join us as we embark on the next exciting phase of digital development with the introduction of a new electronic patient record (EPR). For the Trust, our EPR is much more than a digital version of written notes. It will bring about a transformation to the way we provide care to patients and we’re looking for energetic, forward-thinkers to join the team. We will ‘go live’ with our new EPR in September 2024.

The Trust is already acknowledged as a pioneer in the delivery of digital healthcare, with its award-winning digital care hub delivering care round-the-clock care homes, prisons and people in their own homes.

We are seeking to appoint 2 x EPR Trainers.

You will be required to contribute to planning, design and delivery of complex training, advice and instruction to groups of clinical and non-clinical staff according to training needs analysis, assist with the development and production of detailed end-user training, reference materials, and competency tests. In addition, you will work alongside clinical informatics, improvement, change and learning teams to engage clinicians and managers in the design and delivery of EPR training and developing programmes for awareness raising, informing and engaging colleagues across the Trust.

You will be suitably qualified possessing a degree level qualification and/or equivalent experience of working in the NHS and have proven experience using NHS clinical systems. Experience of working with Cerner Millenium EPR is advantageous. You will have excellent planning & organisational skills, and good interpersonal skills at all levels, and be able to present complex information to a variety of audiences.

To be successful you will need to have good knowledge of an IT (Information Technology) Clinical Systems environment and be prepared to undertake intensive learning of the EPR system to be implemented.
