Nottingham, United Kingdom Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust Full time

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a full-time post as a Discharge Coordinator on ward C53.

Ward C53 is a 28 bedded unit that facilitates the care for a diverse range of patients and due to the nature of these they will often have complex social situations to support and resolve.

You will work closely with the multi-disciplinary team to ensure safe and timely discharges from the ward.

This job will predominately be Monday to Friday 08:00am - 16:00pm with the potential requirement for occasional weekend working.

Please note, this post is aligned to Trust specific pay scales and terms and conditions of service and is not linked to the 2016 doctors in training terms and conditions of service and pay scales.

The aim of the role is to ensure that all patients are tracked through their ward stay, to ensure timely discharge including highlighting any escalations where necessary.

The post holder will have awareness of and escalate delays along a patient’s journey, working with the ward team, Integrated Discharge Team and Bronze on Call as required to minimise these. The post holder will support the Nurse in Charge and bay nurses to complete any non-clinical tasks which may expedite the patient journey, thereby releasing nursing staff to better support the ward and care for their patients.

Delays to work through will include waits for diagnostic scan, wait for clinical review of reported scan, wait for completion of TTO, and wait for discharge following TTO. Actions the post holder will implement to reduce delays will include liaising directly with the clinical staff on the ward, liaising with diagnostic specialties, booking transport, and speaking with patients and relatives.
