Care Co-ordinators act as a central point of contact to ensure that patients receive the best possible care, and the person is supported to achieve the outcomes that are important to them. 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. 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. You will use knowledge of health and social services available in the locality, including those offered by the community and voluntary sector, to link people up with these and help them overcome any barriers they might encounter. The aim is to help people improve their quality of life and avoid unplanned hospital admissions. The role also includes encouragement of screening, routine and planned, and assisting the patient with all concerns and outcomes along the way. An empathetic and sympathetic approach is a must for this role.
