      Job description

      Job responsibilities

      Care coordinators play an important role within a PCN to proactively identify and work with people, including the frail/elderly/children and families and those with long-term conditions, to provide coordination and navigation of care and support across health and care services.

      They work closely with GPs and practice teams to manage a caseload of patients, acting as a central point of contact to ensure appropriate support is made available to them and their carers; supporting them to understand and manage their condition and ensuring their changing needs are addressed.

      This is achieved by bringing together all the information about a persons identified care and support needs and exploring options to meet these within a single personalised care and support plan, based on what matters to the person.

      Care coordinators review patients needs and help them access the services and support they require to understand and manage their own health and wellbeing, referring to social prescribing link workers, health and wellbeing coaches, and other professionals where appropriate.

      Care coordinators could potentially provide time, capacity and expertise to support people in preparing for or following-up clinical conversations they have with primary care professionals to enable them to be actively involved in managing their care and supported to make choices that are right for them. Their aim is to help people improve their quality of life.

      The successful candidate will be caring, dedicated, reliable and person-focussed and enjoy working with a wide range of people. They will have good written and verbal communication skills and strong organisational and time management skills. They will be highly motivated and proactive with a flexible attitude, keen to work and learn as part of a team and committed to providing people, their families and carers with high quality support.

      This role is intended to become an integral part of the PCNs multidisciplinary team, working alongside social prescribing link workers and health and wellbeing coaches to provide an all-encompassing approach to personalised care and promoting and embedding the personalised care approach across the PCN.

      Please note that the role of a care coordinator is not a clinical role.
