**Internal Vacancy**

We have a very exciting opportunity to join our team to cover a 9-month maternity secondment!

The Peripatetic Patient Journey Facilitator role will be based at The Royal Shrewsbury Hospital and will be required to cover as the service demands any of the Medical wards.  Your role is to facilitate the SAFER Red2Green approach and also to assist the Nurse in Charge with daily discharges.  SAFER Red2Green aims to value patient time and improve flow by reducing delays in a patient’s hospital journey.

We are therefore seeking a keen individual with a ‘can-do’ attitude who is able to work flexibly (not ward based) alongside the Patient Flow team to progress the patient’s journey.

The successful candidate will need to be dynamic, proactive and personable.  You will need to have excellent communication skills to be the main point of contact relating to the discharge of patients on ward areas.  It is important that you use your organisational skills to ensure tasks are completed and any concerns are escalated in a timely way.

The well-being of our staff is of the upmost importance to us.  If you are offered a role at our Trust, and fall into the increased and higher risk categories as set out by Public Health England (PHE) and NHSI/E, your line manager will complete an risk assessment with you.  This will be completed in conjunction with the latest guidance from Public Health England in relation to Covid-19.

By submitting your application to Trac, you are giving your consent for parts of your application data to be transferred to the NHS Electronic Staff Record (ESR) and other secure, internal NHS Workforce systems. This is to support and manage your recruitment and employment within your employing organisation. 

If successful, by completing the NHS Jobs application form you authorise the Trust to obtain any previous NHS service details including all electronically held sickness information, via the Inter Authority Transfer process on the national ESR.

By submitting your application you are giving the Trust permission to check the qualification certificates provided back to the source provider. Please note that a sample of all applicant’s qualifications will be checked with the educational institution or provider.
