Are you a Registered Nurse or Allied Health Professional interested in working in the field of specialist rehabilitation?
The Cheshire and Merseyside Rehabilitation Network (CMRN) is looking for a proactive and suitably experienced RGN or AHP to join our dynamic team as a Rehabilitation Coordinator. You will join a well-established Rehabilitation Coordination Service Team and be responsible for a designated caseload of highly complex rehabilitation patients, working closely with the wider specialist rehabilitation multi-disciplinary team, to provide a comprehensive, evidence-based, patient-centred service. You will play a key role in supporting patient's discharge, working closely with external agencies including health care, social care, third sector and voluntary providers. With a clinical background, this role as a Rehabilitation Coordinator will provide you with the opportunity to further expand knowledge and skills outside of a direct clinically facing role, including enhanced communication, organisational and planning skills working flexibly and autonomously in managing your own caseload whilst still retaining the role as a key member of the rehabilitation multidisciplinary team. You will be required to act as part of the Single Point of Contact for referrals into the network and undertake assessment, providing expert clinical advice on the most appropriate rehabilitation pathway.
Main duties of the job
The CMRN is a unique collaborative integrated pathway delivered across multiple organisations, hyper-acute, spoke, extended and community services, providing specialist rehabilitation to patients who have suffered traumatic injury or illness dependent on need and not diagnosis. The post will be primarily based at The Walton Centre. There may be a requirement to work across and support our other network units based on Broadgreen, St Helens or Wirral sites. As a Rehabilitation Coordinator, you will play a pivotal role within the multi-disciplinary team, acting as a key worker to a designated caseload and advocate for patients, families and carers to navigate them through their rehabilitation pathway. You will have excellent communication skills as liaison with referrers, and working closely with the multidisciplinary team including Consultants, Nurses and Allied Health Professionals is an integral part of the role.
