We are currently recruiting for an MDT co-ordinator to join our team in Paediatric Neurology, working alongside our neuromuscular team which consists of Paediatric Neurologists, clinical nurse specialists, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, care advisors, and secretaries.

Expected Shortlisting Date: 09/01/2025
Planned Interview Date: 16/01/2025
Main duties of the job
The successful candidate will work closely with the wider MDT and be a point of contact for the Neuromuscular network. You will be responsible for all aspects of clinic management, ensuring clinics are set up and cancelled accordingly, whilst managing a database for our current patient cohort. Working alongside our transition nurse will also be an important part of this role.
Job responsibilities
The main duties of this role include supporting the wider MDT. This involves attending meetings, taking minutes, and issuing them to various team members. Any actions taken from the MDT should be followed up prior to the next meeting. You will gather information and manage this for both our in-house database and the North Star database. Clinic management is an important part of this role, and you will support the secretarial team to ensure all clinics are set up and cancelled appropriately. You will act as a point of contact for the neuromuscular network and be responsible for arranging patient and family events as well as staff away days. You will be a contact for neuromuscular charities and ensure invoices are dealt with for events.
You will also work closely with our transition nurse to manage the cohort of patients that reach the age where they are required to move from paediatric to adult services. This role involves dealing with sensitive issues or safeguarding involvement, so candidates should be comfortable working in these situations.
