This is an exciting opportunity to be part of an established service that supports the Trust’s Cancer teams. We use the Somerset Cancer Register information system to collect real-time data throughout the patient’s referral, diagnostic and treatment pathways. The data aids the clinical management of the patients and informs progress against the national Cancer Waiting Times standards. The main objectives of the role are: - Working with site-specific multi-disciplinary teams to track patients through their cancer pathway. - Pro-actively monitor individual cancer patients to ensure that they progress through the pathway within the standard timelines and to prevent breaches of national Cancer Waiting Times standards. - Collect and validate clinical data for mandatory cancer datasets. - Provide appropriate cover support across the team during periods of annual leave and absence. We require a highly motivated team player, with excellent organizational and communication skills. You will be self-motivated and will work to a consistently high standard with the ability to manage your own time. A willingness to learn skills and the ability to work as a member of the multidisciplinary team, communicating effectively with staff at all levels will make the job an exciting and rewarding challenge. ### Main duties of the job You will be responsible for working with site-specific multi-disciplinary teams to ensure that national data and reporting requirements are met. This will involve actively monitoring, reporting, and entering data onto the Trust cancer database. Working as a member of the Cancer Services Department, and in collaboration with others, ensure an integrated process by which the active management (tracking) of patients with cancer and the active live collection and inputting of data supports Trust compliance with National Cancer Waiting Times. As a named link between the Cancer Services Department and site-specific multidisciplinary teams, ensure that potential breaches of the Cancer Waiting Times standard are highlighted and escalated according to Trust policy. Provide appropriate cover support to Cancer Services working with other sites, 2 week wait referrals, histology reports, chemotherapy data sheets and radiotherapy referrals as indicated. ### Detailed job description and main responsibilities Please see the attached Job Description and Person Specification for more information on this opportunity. ## Person Specification ### Experience **Essential** - Experience of using Windows and Office software including Word, Excel and Outlook **Desirable** - Experience using other software - Patient Centre/Somerset/BookWise ### Skills, abilities, and knowledge **Essential** - Awareness of broader issues within the NHS - Awareness of the need for confidentiality - Responds to internal & external queries verbally and written - Flexible approach to working hours and practices to cover staff holidays and absences **Desirable** - Knowledge of medical terminology - Understanding of Cancer Waiting times ### Qualifications/training and professional development **Essential** - A good standard of English to GCSE or equivalent - Experience working in administrative / data Information input and analysis - Experience and skills in data analysis techniques - Ability to work independently and as part of a team **Desirable** - Experience in a Cancer Services environment ## Documents - [our values (pdf, 1.1mb)](https://www.healthjobsuk.com/documents?edoc=2570) - [our trust (pdf, 674.0kb)](https://www.healthjobsuk.com/documents?edoc=2671) - [say hello to stream (pdf, 7.2mb)](https://www.healthjobsuk.com/documents?edoc=2393) - [establishing identity (pdf, 243.0kb)](https://www.healthjobsuk.com/documents?edoc=1315) - [recruitment policy overview (pdf, 125.0kb)](https://www.healthjobsuk.com/documents?edoc=2961) - [job description and person specification (pdf, 257.4kb)](https://www.healthjobsuk.com/documents?vdoc=10482866) ## Agent Notes - This Markdown page is generated from the same Job Clerk job record as the HTML job detail page. - Use the canonical HTML URL for user-facing references. - Use the application URL when the user wants to apply on the source NHS site.
