PCN Care Coordinator

An exciting opportunity has arisen within Primary Care to work as a Care Coordinator at The Confederation, Hillingdon CIC based at our Synergy PCN. Care Coordinators play an important role within a PCN to proactively identify and work with people, including the frail/elderly 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 people 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 could provide time, capacity and expertise to support people in preparing for, or following-up, clinical conversations.
