Ensure that any patients who have their surgery cancelled for any reason are rebooked where appropriate, within the appropriate timeframes.
Inform the patient’s consultant of any cancellations either in advance of surgery or at pre-assessment.

Ensure that all admissions are arranged in line with the trust’s access policy.
Be responsible for ensuring that all patients are added to the waiting list within 24 hours of the decision to admit.
When the date has been agreed with the patient in clinic ensure that all information OpenEyes/PAS is accurate, and that the patient has had a pre-assessment appointment made and a post-op appointment made (where appropriate).
If no date has been agreed with the patient, make sure that a date is arranged within 5 days of the decision to admit.
Ensure that every patient has a pre-assessment appointment. Be responsible for booking pre-assessment appointments.
Liaise closely with the surgeons, their teams and the lead nurses to ensure that the theatre lists are booked appropriately. Regularly review future lists and ensure that unused slots are kept to a minimum.
Patients of the same clinical urgency should be booked in chronological order where possible.
Dates should always be offered within the patient’s 18-week breach date. Where this is not possible escalate appropriately.
Update notes about theatre lists on the Open Eyes scheduling software (eg closed lists / additional patients to go on).
Where a patient requires transport, or an interpreter ensure that arrangements are made for these to be booked.
Regularly review the waiting list for the designated service ensuring that all patients have a date and that that complies with RTT requirements.
