Description

An exciting development opportunity has arisen to join our multi-disciplinary team as a band 4 discharge coordinator. There are 2 inpatient wards so we are looking at one per ward

You will be an integral member of the MDT and take on an overarching role in supporting patient flow through the system with the aim of reducing the length of stay for all patients.

At Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust, we aim to support and advocate for the people we care for in the local community and are a fully responsive service to those who need it.

This is the same approach we take for our employees.

We look to value the skills and experiences of those we work with whether they are service users, carers, families or those looking to work with us.

We are willing to invest and develop our staff further to ensure they meet their full potential and gain job satisfaction.

The role of the discharge coordinator will be to actively and independently monitor the multi-disciplinary management and discharge plan for all patients to ensure efficient, timely discharges.

You must therefore have excellent communication skills and be confident to work on many levels within the MDT as well as external community organisations.

In return we can offer you day to day support and a real commitment to your personal development plan.

We are looking for a highly motivated individual, with experience of rehabilitation and possibly community working, who would like to develop their career in a friendly and local environment.

If you are passionate about delivering quality care improving and maintaining patient flow and are committed to working in an integrated way with our partners in health and social care, we would love to hear from you.

We look to value the skills and experiences of those we work with, whether they are service users, carers, families or those looking to work with us.

Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust is part of the NHS. We treat NHS patients according to NHS principles and standards.

The difference is the Trust is accountable to local people, rather than to Government, and so we are able to work closely with our community to develop services in the way that best suits the needs of local people.

The qualification, training & experience requirements for the role are underlined in the Job Description/Person Specification.
