We are seeking a proactive and highly motivated individual to join the Discharge Team at Frimley Park Hospital as a Discharge Care Coordinator.
The post-holder will play a key role in supporting safe, timely, and well-coordinated patient discharges, working both autonomously and as an effective member of the multidisciplinary team.
The successful candidate will be enthusiastic, well organised, and able to manage a varied workload in a fast-paced environment.
Excellent communication skills are essential, as the role requires regular interaction with patients, families, and health and social care professionals to ensure discharge plans are clear, appropriate, and person-centred. Strong IT skills are also required to maintain accurate documentation, update electronic systems, and support efficient information sharing.
This is an exciting opportunity for someone who is committed to improving patient flow and contributing to high-quality, compassionate care.
• Support effective discharge planning for patients with complex health and social care needs across all clinical specialties at Frimley Park Hospital.
• Work closely with the multidisciplinary team to coordinate safe, timely, and appropriate discharge pathways, ensuring patients and families are fully informed and supported throughout the process.
• Liaise with health and social care professionals to gather relevant information, identify barriers to discharge, and help develop person-centred plans that promote smooth transitions of care.
• Use strong communication and problem-solving skills to manage competing priorities and respond to challenges in a fast-paced environment.
• Work flexibly and independently while contributing positively to the wider discharge team, maintaining accurate documentation and upholding high standards of patient experience and service delivery.
