Job Summary: Building on the work of the 4 previous Integrated Stroke Delivery Networks (West Yorkshire and Harrogate, South Yorkshire, Humber and North Yorkshire and North East and North Cumbria), the postholder will work collaboratively with stroke professionals to bring together health and care services across the entire stroke pathway, from prevention to rehabilitation. The overarching aim of this project is to improve the quality of stroke care for better clinical outcomes, patient experience and patient safety, working with others across the region to ensure stroke remains a priority and to support delivery against the impending Modern Service Framework for Cardiovascular Disease.
The successful candidate will be responsible for the delivery of key pieces of work that will be agreed with the regional stroke working group to report progress against their deliverables. Using the National Stroke Service Model, Integrated Community Stroke Service Model and the impending Modern Service Framework for Cardiovascular Disease as drivers; alongside the closure reports for the previous ISDNs, the Collaborative will identify new opportunities for improvement concurrently with established pieces of work. The successful candidate will need to be comfortable managing multiple, competing priorities, working to tight deadlines, maintaining a high level of accountability and self-motivation to drive the workplan.
Why you should join our Team: This is an exciting time for stroke services across the North East, Yorkshire and Humber, as we work to bring 24-hour thrombectomy to our communities, strengthen collaboration between hospital trusts, and support the move from hospital to community, helping those affected by Stroke get the right treatment, in the right place, and at the right time. We are a welcoming, supportive team, and you will join a trust used to supporting leaders to work across organisational boundaries to support better patient care.
What you will bring to the role: The Service Manager will operationally manage a complex programme of interdependent projects across the network member organisations proving strategic development and leading to improvement in outcomes for patients by delivery of high quality, effective and efficient services. This will build on recent successes around quality, activity, cost savings and efficiencies. The post holder will report to the General Manager and work in partnership with senior medical, nursing and admin colleagues within Trust and wider region, to ensure delivery aims of the regional and local Stroke Services within a financially sustainable model.
The Service Manager will be responsible for a complex programme of interdependent projects across all trusts which provide stroke services and the development of financially affordable solutions to capacity and quality constraints and the integration of services across the health economy. This will enable the development, delivery and maintenance of performance targets and plans.
