They will work alongside the Social Prescribers and the Health and Wellbeing Coaches to provide an all-encompassing approach to personalised care and enable people to navigate through the health and care system. This non-clinical role is administrative and patient contact by telephone is a key component, as the role involves organising appointments directly with the patients. There is also a patient facing element when accompanying the PAC Nurse to annual review visits in the community and/or patients’ own homes. The postholder will work with a diverse range of people from different cultural and social backgrounds. The ability to work confidently and effectively in a varied and sometimes challenging environment is essential.

The post is part time (20 hours per week) from Mondays to Fridays, between 9am -1pm.  It will be predominantly surgery based work and requires travel across the Network to the surgeries of both Partnerships, so flexibility of working and access to private transport is essential.
