Summary
About the Role The Care Coordinator - Multi-Disciplinary Team position represents an exciting opportunity to join SHaR PCN's innovative Personalised Care Team. This permanent, 22.5-hour role is fundamental to our mission of delivering coordinated, patient-centred care across our seven GP practices in Ryedale and South Hambleton. Key Purpose You'll ensure patient health and care planning is timely, efficient, and genuinely patient-centred by coordinating multidisciplinary team meetings and facilitating seamless communication among healthcare professionals. Your role directly supports the NHS Long Term Plan's commitment to making personalised care standard practice throughout the health and social care system. Principal Responsibilities MDT Meeting Coordination You'll organise and manage regular multidisciplinary team meetings, ensuring all relevant patient information, clinical notes, and reports are readily available for discussion. Your meticulous attention to detail will ensure meeting outcomes are accurately documented and disseminated to all identified care providers, with treatment plans properly recorded for future reference. Patient Pathway Management Working autonomously, you'll coordinate complex patient journeys through primary and secondary care, communicating sensitive information to diverse healthcare professionals. You'll negotiate with various departments, seek professional advice when needed, and maintain comprehensive attendance records of MDT participation. Personalised Care Planning You'll be actively involved in introducing, developing, and reviewing personalised care and support plans (PCSP). Working holistically, you'll bring together all identified care and support needs, exploring options within a single, comprehensive plan based on what matters most to the individual patient. Care Coordination and Navigation Providing coordination and navigation support for patients and their carers across health and care services, you'll work closely with social prescribing link workers, health and wellbeing coaches, and other primary care professionals. You'll help patients manage their needs through answering queries, managing appointments, and ensuring they receive high-quality information to make informed care choices. Quality Improvement and Development You'll identify health inequalities and provide feedback on engagement enhancement opportunities. Supporting the PCN's implementation of new care models, you'll provide regular updates and feedback, helping adapt and improve services to better meet patient needs. Key Tasks and Competencies Administrative Excellence Proficiency in healthcare databases and IT systems is essential for effective data management and reporting. You'll provide comprehensive administrative support to the MDT, including typing meeting minutes, following up on action points, and ensuring compliance with healthcare regulations. Relationship Building Developing close working relationships with Personalised Care Team members, you'll negotiate with all parties involved in care issues to establish productive working relationships and improve patient journey coordination. Communication and Documentation Your role requires exceptional verbal and written communication skills for effective collaboration with healthcare professionals and maintaining accurate patient records. You'll recognise patients' needs for alternative communication methods and respond appropriately. Professional Development Working with a named clinical point of contact, you'll undertake continual personal and professional development, actively participating in reviewing and developing the role whilst adhering to organisational policies including confidentiality, safeguarding, information governance, and health and safety requirements. Working Environment This role operates within an integrated neighbourhood team consisting of various health and care professionals. You'll contribute to the wider PCN aims and objectives whilst maintaining flexibility and demonstrating willingness to undertake additional duties within the role's general character and responsibility level. Impact and Outcomes Your contribution as Care Coordinator will directly enhance existing skill mix, resulting in improved patient lives, timelier access to services, and increased patient confidence and skills in managing their own health and wellbeing. You'll address wider determinants of health including housing, debt, stress, and loneliness whilst supporting GP and staff workloads. Location & Travel Requirements While based at Easingwold Health Centre, you'll be required to travel flexibly across all seven of our GP practices (Pickering, Kirkbymoorside, Helmsley, Terrington, Stillington, Tollerton, and Millfield) to deliver services and support patients in their local communities. This role therefore requires a current full driving licence and sole use of your own vehicle.
