The Diabetes Team has a vacancy for a full-time Pathway Coordinator to work as part of the team at Alder Hey Children's Hospital. The Diabetes service is a busy multi-disciplinary team with a large group of patients who stay with the service from diagnosis to transition, making it a fulfilling and rewarding area to work with a consistent patient group. This role is a fantastic opportunity within the organisation as the Diabetes service also has a requirement to submit to national databases and support families through the ordering of devices to help manage their diabetes. This will give the post holder a varied and interesting workload to manage outwith the traditional PCO role.
Experienced and committed, you will provide an efficient and comprehensive secretarial service to the Consultants, Diabetes Specialists Nurses, and MDT Team. The post holder's main duties will include planning, organizing, directing, and coordinating the work of the department including, but not limited to:
1. Managing patient pathways
2. Coordinating the work of the MDT
3. Submissions to national databases
4. Supporting the ordering of devices to support families and patient care
The Pathway Coordinator will be expected to work with the minimum of supervision. He/she will be able to demonstrate flexibility and use their own initiative to carry out duties in such a way as to make a direct and positive contribution to the organisation, thus enabling the Consultant and his/her team to utilise their time in an efficient and effective manner. The post holder will provide a confident professional service to all patients and their parents while supporting them throughout their pathway of care. It is vital that confidentiality be maintained at all times. The post holder must adhere to Trust Policies and Procedures at all times.
The successful applicant will need to have a good general level of education, secretarial experience/qualifications, and be confident in handling data.
