Description

We are looking for a vibrant, confident person to join the team to help deliver a high quality service in the MDT Team at Colchester Hospital.


Do you have excellent administration skills, an eye for detail, the tenacity to 'go that extra mile' in a very busy environment and care about patients that may be facing a diagnosis of cancer.


Colchester and Ipswich hospitals have recently merged to form East Suffolk and North Essex NHS Foundation Trust and we are now looking to recruit new members to join our team of Multidisciplinary Team Coordinators (MDTC's) at the Colchester site.


If you think that you have the level of commitment and the skill set that this role requires then we would love to hear from you.


The role of a pathway tracker is an ideal first step towards becoming a fully trained Band 4 MDT Coordinator and internal developmental opportunities await the right applicant.


It's the responsibility of each MDTC to track the pathway of patients who have been referred to hospital urgently, to rule out the possibility that they may have cancer.


It is essential that all patients referred in on a 2 week wait (suspicion of cancer) pathway have every stage of the treatment tracked on a daily basis to make sure that they received a diagnosis within 28 days and where found to have cancer, their treatment, within 34 days of receiving that diagnosis.


The role of the Pathway Tracker is to make sure that they review progress by tracking the patient using either Somerset Cancer Registry or Infoflex, through the various hospital diagnostic systems, updating all the clinical teams when the information is available and ensuring that it is all available for the weekly MDT meetings, escalating any delays to the operational teams.


One of the largest Trust's in East Anglia, East Suffolk and North Essex NHS Foundation Trust (ESNEFT) provide hospital and community health services to people living across a wide geographical area.

We deliver care from two main hospitals in Colchester and Ipswich, six community hospitals and in patients' own homes. You will be joining a team of over 11,000 amazing colleagues providing care to 800,000 residents.


Along with supporting you to achieve your career goals we offer a generous pension scheme, 27 days annual leave on commencement (pro rata) and access to a range of NHS discounts.

Our Staff Health and Wellbeing programme offer a range of services including mental health support. We offer a range of flexible working opportunities.

Our philosophy is thatTime Mattersto everyone.

Across the Trust, we concentrate on improving the things we do and removing those which do not work or cause time delays for our staff and patients.


To support our employees to achieve their career aspirations you may be eligible to obtain a qualification via an apprenticeship.

All successful applicants will be required to undertake a skills review to facilitate this. For full details please see the attached Apprenticeship Handbook.


If you are passionate about patient care and want to develop your skills and knowledge then we are keen to hear from you.

For full details of the responsibilities and duties of this role please see the attached job description.
