Advert The Patient Flow Coordinator plays a vital role in the Operations Delivery Centre, requiring prior experience in emergency services (or equivalent), ideally within a control room (or call centre) environment. The primary responsibility is to optimise the flow of operational ambulance resources by analysing data from the Hospital Handover and Fleet Barriers Dashboards along with other performance metrics, while maintaining accurate handover data quality. Key duties include real-time communication with ambulance crews via radio and telephone, interpreting the Resource Availability Dashboard, and working collaboratively to remove barriers to patient care. The role supports the principle that no patient should wait unnecessarily for an ambulance and contributes to efficient hospital handovers and movement of our fleet of ambulances. Reporting to the Service Delivery Officer, the coordinator works closely with HALOs, Operations Offers, Community Response Coordinators, and EOC staff and many of our partner agencies.
