KCHFT are seeking ambitious individuals to join our Community Assessment Bed (CAB) team.
CAB support some of the most complex transfers of care from hospitals mainly in East Kent to the community. This is a critical administration role in the management of community assessment bed occupancy in East Kent.
Your role will require you to demonstrate the Trust’s CARE values and utilise these values on a daily basis when liaising with families, other Organisations or our providers.
Attention to detail is key in this role as we support patients, families and next of kin through the Discharge to Assess pathway. This can be a very anxiety provoking time for all involved so clear, consistent communication is key.
Working in a high pressure service, you will report to the Purchasing and Allocation Coordinator and be responsible for: Ensuring referrals are processed. Identifying appropriate community beds. Facilitating effective communication between wards and internal/external providers. Ensuring the safe and timely transfer of patients from acute hospitals.
You will also be responsible for keeping accurate, ‘real time’ records of all patient transfers and supporting the team in ensuring all processes are followed, and patients and their families are supported.
Additional Working Pattern: Mon-Fri and 1 Saturday a month.

We know a commitment to equity, diversity and inclusion leads to better patient care and a happier workforce. We pride ourselves in being diverse and welcome applications from people with varied backgrounds, perspectives and experiences.
As a flexible working friendly organisation, we want you to be able to work in a way that is best for us, for our patients and for you. Talk to us about a flexible working arrangement that won’t involve sacrificing time for personal interests or family commitments.
