Pilot and Implementation Coach Healthcare Innovation

Do you want to become our pilot and implementation coach for healthcare technology, working together to test healthcare technological innovations and supporting them during implementations?

Will you help (healthcare) teams to make innovation a true part of their daily work?

New technology can provide clients with more possibilities and support employees in their daily work. Innovation is only successful if it aligns with healthcare practice and employees are able and willing to work with it. As a Pilot and Implementation Coach for Innovation, you stand close to that practice. You support healthcare teams in testing, implementing, and sustainably using innovations. In doing so, you look beyond the technology itself. You keep an eye on clients, employees, work processes, collaboration, and what a change requires from a team.

As a pilot and implementation coach for healthcare innovation, you work together with your colleagues from the Innovation team and support (healthcare) employees in testing and implementing healthcare (technological) innovations. During our pilots, we inform, involve, and make colleagues aware of the new way of working. We test acceptance, adaptability, digital skills, and possible risks. Healthcare (technological) innovation goes beyond just technology. You help healthcare teams to adjust work processes and guidelines so that innovations are used sustainably. This makes the work easier and contributes to good care for the client. Together, you investigate the possibilities and offer advice and guidance.

Initially, you will work from the Zoetermeer Service Office, but you will, of course, often be found at one of the Ipse de Bruggen locations.

What will be the subjects/pilots that you will at least be working on?

• Pilot medicine dispenser
• Thinking along about the design of the Innovation product catalog
• Working with AI

How are you going to do this?

• You contribute to pilot and implementation plans, execute them, and work together to ensure monitoring, accountability, and reporting;
• You work in pilot teams within healthcare and supervise them;
• Your pilot and implementation approach is characterized by 'starting small and rolling out big'. This means that learning occurs from initial experiences along the way and that you adjust in a timely manner to achieve optimal use of the (technological) healthcare innovations within the teams;
• You contribute to the awareness of healthcare employees regarding the use of (technological) healthcare innovations and know how to use resistance positively;
• You inform and enthusiast healthcare employees about the use of (technological) healthcare innovations. Together, you look at the design of the technology within their/the healthcare practice;
• You observe, analyze, and answer practical questions in the field of (technological) healthcare innovations.

At Ipse de Bruggen, you often work with vulnerable clients, and therefore we are very careful in our selection policy. The application for a Certificate of Conduct (VOG), checking references, and requesting information from the Health and Youth Care Inspectorate are, for that reason, part of the selection procedure.
