Job summary

Our UTC operates a Digital Front Door (DFD), which is a clinically driven digital triage tool designed to improve safety and efficiency across urgent and emergency care and is changing the way patients reach and move through urgent care in Greenwich. Our patients use the DFD to check in and complete a short, guided triage, enabling faster prioritisation and smoother patient journeys.

Whats New?

Our clinical system supplier is developing a new appointment book, which for the first time will allow patients to be booked directly into an urgent care appointment rather than simply being given an arrival time or having to sit and wait.

We are redesigning our Directory of Services (DOS) so that appointment slots align to NHS Pathways disposition timescales. A patient with a see a GP within 48 hours disposition can be offered a later appointment, while presentations more likely to need an emergency department can be booked within two hours.

NHS Pathways sorts patients leaving the digital front door into a number of groups, including those who are not urgent and can safely be seen later. Booking to the right slot at the right time helps us manage surge, improve flow and demand, and reduce attributable breaches.

Greenwich Health will be launching a new system where NHS 111 can book patients into a named urgent care appointment.

Main duties of the job

This is the perfect opportunity to be part of a diverse team at the very front of urgent care in Greenwich, and to help deliver a model that is the first of its kind in South East London.

As a Front Door Navigator you will be the first person a patient meets when they arrive at emergency and urgent care. Working from a tablet at the entrance, you will welcome patients, establish why they have attended, check whether they hold a booked appointment made through NHS 111 or the digital front door, and direct them to the right place without delay.

You will keep people moving away from the reception queue and make sure that patients who are unwell, distressed or vulnerable are brought to the attention of a clinician immediately. This is a non-clinical role, you will not assess, triage or advise on a patients condition, but your judgement about when to escalate is central to keeping patients safe.

You will also play an important part in helping us evaluate the new model, recording how patients arrive and where they are directed, and feeding back to the UTC Lead where the appointment book or the Directory of Services is not working as intended.

This is a genuine opportunity to be part of something new and exciting in South East London, with a real opportunity for personal growth and to influence Urgent Care in your area. The service is 24/7, 365 days per year which means a range of shifts will be available.

About us

Greenwich Health is the GP Federation for the Greenwich Borough and have a not-for-profit ethos. This means we reinvest all our surplus into developing our staff, our organisation and to support our GP Practices in being sustainable for the future. We are committed to providing quality of care to our patients whilst building resilience for General Practice and providing services and programmes of work to deliver care at scale to the Greenwich Population. This role will be part of an exciting opportunity to work with leading specialists in the creation of an innovative Urgent Treatment Centre.

About us

Working as a partnership, both Isle of Wight NHS Trust and Portsmouth Hospitals University NHS Trust have a shared vision for excellence in care for our patients and communities; with a set of strategic aims underpinning how we will achieve this.

The single corporate service is delivered across both organisations. You may be based at either IWT or PHU and individuals may be required to undertake business travel between sites. For leaders managing staff across multi-site locations, you will need to be visible and provide in person leadership. The arrangements and frequency will be agreed locally.

The health and wellbeing of our staff is at the forefront of everything we do. We are proud to be able to offer our staff some fantastic benefits including our on-site Nursery, access to our free Beach Hut for those long summer days, our on-site Wellness Centre including a gym and a swimming pool, access to our fantastic staff networks including LGBTQ, Race Equality and DisAbility, and awards ceremonies to recognise your achievements. We believe we can offer support to all of our staff when they need it the most.

We welcome the unique contributions that you can bring in terms of your education, opinions, culture, ethnicity, race, sex, gender identity and expression, nation of origin, age, languages spoken, veterans' status, colour, religion, disability, sexual orientation, and beliefs.
