Job overview

Be part of a pioneering new service that’s transforming how we care for patients across Sussex. Remote Monitoring is designed to support patients at home, prevent unnecessary hospital admissions, and deliver compassionate, timely care through innovative virtual solutions.

As a  Remote Monitoring Clinical Delivery Practitioner within Community Care, you’ll oversee utilisation of remote monitoring licenses and equipment across community services.  You will support the development of future clinical pathways and provide clinical advice and guidance to internal and external stakeholders including clinicians, care homes, acute trusts and primary care, whilst supporting continuous evaluation and regular reporting of metrics. 

While patient monitoring will take place remotely, this role is not remote.  The base is negotiable but will be within an SCFT site, working alongside community care colleagues.  The role will require travel across the SCFT footprint to provide clinical leadership, support implementation of the remote monitoring licences, and work directly with teams and the remote monitoring hub to embed the service.
