Cancer Follow-Up Co-ordinator

The Cancer Services Team are looking for Cancer Follow-up Coordinators. The Cancer Follow-Up Coordinators will work alongside Cancer Support Workers and Clinical Nurse Specialists along with the wider Cancer team to ensure patients have a timely, efficient, effective and supported follow-up period following completion of their cancer treatment. Post-holders will be based in a specific cancer - type team and work closely with the clinical and non-clinical members of that team.

These roles will be based across all our hospital sites - Royal Sussex County Hospital, Princess Royal Hospital, Worthing Hospital and St Richard's Hospital.

Please note: This role does not meet the minimum criteria for visa sponsorship under the current UK immigration rules, which set specific salary and skill thresholds. As such, we are unable to provide sponsorship for this post. Applicants will therefore need to already have the right to work in the UK to be considered. We include this information at the outset to provide clarity and avoid unnecessary inconvenience for applicants.

If you do not meet the sponsorship requirements, and you are applying using a Graduate visa as your right to work, you must have a minimum of 18 months remaining on your visa at time of application.

• The post-holder will:
• Track patients following treatment, including enrolment onto and discharge from remote follow-up systems.
• Coordinate investigations and symptom assessment questionnaires as per a pre-defined schedule
• Evaluate results within a clinically supervised protocol
• Communicate with patients the outcome of review via standardised letters.
• Escalate to the clinical team as indicated by the protocol
