Helping patients take the next step: Discover the Clinical Coordination Center
The continuum of care is incredibly broad, and for patients looking to navigate this alone, the process can at times become overwhelming. That’s why at Northwell Health we created the Clinical Coordination Center, which takes patient referrals from our physicians and helps them discover what the next step should be in their path toward better health.
The Clinical Coordination Center consists of experts who are capable of addressing the needs of a patient and coordinating their access to care. They take into account the urgency of patient needs, their location, physician availability, and many other nuanced factors that play into providing the best possible care. Clinical Coordinators work at the center of Northwell, gaining insight into nearly every aspect of the health system. It’s the sort of role that attracts high-level intellectual caregivers, and fosters collaboration. The results of this team have been astounding. Patient satisfaction is through the roof reaching a whopping 95%, and physician satisfaction is at 93%.
The rewarding reception to the work being done at the Clinical Care Center is matched by a rewarding work environment. Clinical Care Coordinators benefit from a bright room, flexible hours, fun activities and, above all, a team of enthusiastic colleagues.
“There are no wrong numbers in this office. If you call us by accident, we’ll never steer you away. We are the yes people. Yes, we can!” – Ronda Gross, Assistant Vice President, Clinical Coordination Center
