MSK Administrator (Patient Care Advisor)


Could you be the first voice a patient hears?

Our Sussex MSK Partnership team are looking for brilliant administrators who can ensure good care happens for patients. We call our administrators Patient Care Advisors (PCAs for short).

Patient Care Advisors are an invaluable part of the Sussex MSK Partnership service. The service helps people who are experiencing MSK (aka musculoskeletal, muscle and bone) conditions, stewarding patients through options for their care and providing support for those who need assessment, diagnosis, and treatment. All people across Brighton and Hove, Crawley, mid-Sussex and Horsham with a musculoskeletal condition are referred to our service.

We want to make a person's care as straightforward as possible, by providing one point of contact as close to their home as we can.

This is a full-time post (37.5 hours per week) with the standard working week as or 0900-1700, Monday-Friday. We will be happy to consider applications from candidates seeking part-time work, and we can be flexible with regard to the number of working days per week, but we do require all our staff to work full days (i.e. 7.5 hours per day).


Main duties of the Job

  • Patient Care Advisors are the first point of contact for our patients. This means they handle patient data every single day and work within small teams, making sure the people we see experience seamless care.
  • Communication is a key part of this telephone-based role, working with local GP practices, hospitals, community staff and clinicians to get patients to the most appropriate services for their needs accurately and on time.
  • Our Patient Care Advisors work a split week in the physiotherapy departments in both Crawley Hospital and Horsham Hospital.

The successful candidate will be employed by Sussex Community NHS Foundation Trust but will work within the Sussex MSK Partnership service.
