London, United Kingdom Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust Full time

An exciting Band 3 Patient Access Coordinator opportunity has arisen to join our Outpatients Booking Team at our Guys site.

We are looking for motivated and enthusiastic individuals who are keen to work in a fast paced environment, whilst providing the best front of house patient experience to all of our patients and visitors and have excellent verbal communication, organise clinics, update the patient database, liaise with GPs and other health workers and carry out all other general administration duties. This will ensure that, at every contact with the Trust, patients are able to speak to staff who understand their scheduling needs and that clinical teams are always supported by knowledgeable administrative staff.

The post holder will act as a key liaison between doctors, nurses, allied health professionals, managers and patients. They must be a clear and tactful communicator with excellent customer care skills and the ability to develop strong working relationships with a wide range of people. They will have a mature attitude with good problem-solving abilities and a flexible, can-do attitude.

**Patient Access Cordinator**:
The Patient Access Co-ordinator will be the first point of contact for patients and service users providing an in depth knowledge of outpatient and inpatient scheduling procedures for their speciality.

The Patient Access Co-ordinator will liaise closely with the clinical team and speciality management teams to ensure patients receive timely and appropriate appointments according to their care pathway.

Depending on the requirements of the speciality, the post holder will need to cover the service on a rotation during operational hours, providing clinic reception cover, scheduling functions, general administrative support and telephone cover for their speciality. This will ensure that, at every contact with the Trust, patients are able to speak to staff who understand their scheduling needs and that clinical teams are always supported by knowledgeable administrative staff.

**Associate Medical Secretary**:
Responsible for providing an efficient, high quality secretarial support to one or more consultants and clinical teams within the department under the line management of the Medical Secretary Team Lead. This will include ensuring that all daily secretarial tasks are undertaken, assisting with the organisation of the consultants’ workload and communicating appointments and admission related information to patients/carers in a friendly and reassuring way.

The orthopaedic department is rapidly growing into one of London’s largest orthopaedic services providing specialist tertiary interest in: Lower limb and Upper limb revision arthroplasty, surgery for young adult hip disorders, foot and ankle surgery, hand and wrist surgery, spinal surgery and patients with complex co-morbidities such as haemophilia and sickle cell disease.

Guy’s and St Thomas’ is among the UK’s busiest and most successful NHS foundation trusts. We provide a full range of hospital and community services for people in south London and as well as specialist care for patients from further afield including cancer, renal, orthopaedic, respiratory and cardiovascular services.

In February 2021 the Royal Brompton and Harefield joined Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust, bringing together world-leading expertise in the care and research of heart and lung disease. Our merger provides a once in a generation opportunity to build a lasting, world-renowned heart and lung centre, providing the highest quality care for patients and conducting world-leading research.

We have a reputation for clinical excellence and high quality teaching and research. We are part of King’s Health Partners, one of eight accredited UK academic health sciences centres. In partnership with King’s College London we have dedicated clinical research facilities and a National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) Biomedical Research Centre.
