At UHBW we are creating two new Transfer of Care Hubs to support our patients with discharge planning from admission through leaving hospital and into the community; one Hub at the Bristol Site and one at Weston General Hospital. The Transfer of Care Hub will bring together our community partners (Sirona), Local Authorities and Voluntary Sector colleagues across BNSSG to create a new team from multidisciplinary backgrounds.

• Manage patient communications via telephone and through Trust systems to create letters and emails
• To act as a point of contact for queries from clinical and non-clinical staff
• Liaise with clinical and non-clinical teams across the Trust via telephone and email
