You will also interact with ambulance crews to book in their patients and upload their notes to the patient record and collect data on ambulance arrival times for departmental audits. The role involves a lot of computer work as you will be expected to obtain, scan and file patient notes, discharge patients to specialist wards, book appointments and referrals for patients and code clinical notes. The administrator will also work alongside the Nurse in Charge to coordinate patient flow through the Emergency Department thereby ensuring patients are admitted/discharged in a timely manner whilst maintaining the Trust values and behaviours. You will also deal with telephone enquiries and take on other office based tasks, providing general support to clinicians, nurses, and managers to help with the everyday running of the Department.
We will provide you with a complete induction and support continuing development through yearly appraisals.
This post will include working a shift pattern including long days, twilight shifts, night shifts, weekends and bank holidays.

To provide a seamless service between patient arrival and discharge. The role is multi-facetted and as a priority provides real-time computer entries on various systems, including admission, discharge, transfer, clinical coding and ambulance services.
The post holder will cover reception, ward clerk and clinical coding flexibly to meet the needs of the service. There may also be cross-site working to cover the needs of the service if required.
Come and join a Trust rated Outstanding by the CQC. South Warwickshire NHS Foundation Trust have been rated as outstanding following our latest inspection by the CQC and we are recruiting new staff to come and help us improve even further.
We provide services across Warwickshire and beyond ranging from Hospitals in Warwick, Stratford-Upon-Avon, Royal Leamington Spa and Shipston-on Stour to Community Services across the county. We are a progressive, expanding organisation with great ambition around improving quality, integrating pathways and delivering high levels of productivity.
