We are looking for a highly motivated individual to join our small, friendly team of Care Coordinators, who are helping us to address health inequalities for our patients. This includes aiding patients to access our services, and overcome any barriers to receiving the best possible healthcare and support.
You will be the first point of contact for our frail patients when they are discharged from hospital, ensuring that the care plan they have in place meets their needs, and arranging any appointments that they may need post discharge, e.g. a Pharmacist appointment to discuss changes to their medication.
You will receive referrals from other health care staff to aid patients to access services, and ensure that health and care planning is timely, efficient and patient-centred. You will build relationships with our more vulnerable and complex patients to better understand their needs, enabling you to signpost them to the relevant services.
The role includes supporting digital initiatives while coordinating and navigating the patients’ journey through primary care.

To support patients to utilise decision aids in preparation for a shared decisions-making conversation and to help create single personalised care and support plans, in line with best practice.
To help people manage their needs through answering queries, making and managing appointments, and ensuring that people have good quality written or verbal information to help them make choices about their care. This may include supporting people to take up training and employment, self-management education courses and access appropriate benefits where eligible.
To support people to understand their level of knowledge, skills and confidence (their “Activation” level) when engaging with their health and wellbeing, by utilising the Patient Activation Measure.
