Integral Planner Admission Preparation

• This is more than just planning: You weigh the available capacity, the care demand, and the interests of various specialties against each other.
• You are given room for your own initiative: You think along about logistical challenges, identify where the planning can be improved, and see the direct result of your work.
• You contribute knowledge and initiate improvements: You share your experience with colleagues, involve the right people, and help to organize processes more smartly and better.

As an Integral Planner, you ensure that scheduled admissions and surgeries align well. This involves more than just filling a calendar: You take into account the available capacity, the wishes of various specialties, and what is necessary to be able to help patients properly. You look ahead, identify bottlenecks, and take initiative if the planning is at risk of stalling. In short, you ensure that everything comes together at the right time.

Your responsibilities will include

• The planning of scheduled admissions and surgeries.
• The coordination of the planning with medical specialists, outpatient clinics, nursing departments, and OR staff.
• The management of waiting lists and monitoring the flow.
• The identification and resolution of bottlenecks in the planning.
• Participation in planning and capacity meetings.
• Thinking along about improvements in processes and working methods.

You will work within the Admission Preparation department, at the Nieuwegein location. Here, administrative staff, intake nurses, integral planners, and capacity planners work together on the proper preparation and planning of surgeries.
You have contact with almost all operative specialties. Together with your colleagues, you ensure that patients receive the care they need at the right time.
We work primarily on-site, because collaboration is an important part of the role. Additionally, one work-from-home day per week is a possibility.

• Salary up to a maximum of € 4,346.- gross p/m (CAO Hospitals FWG scale 45) based on a 36-hour work week, depending on your education and work experience.
• Annual contract for 20-24 hours per week, with a view to permanent employment
• A 13th month, an attractive pension scheme, and a time budget to use for a good work-life balance
• Tax benefits and discounts on, among other things, bicycles, sports, electronics, and cultural outings
• Training and development opportunities to deepen your (professional) knowledge
• Participation in (sporting) activities and workshops

You see what is needed to make a schedule run smoothly and do not wait for someone to tell you what to do. You maintain an overview, make connections, and think ahead. When interests clash or the planning changes, you look for solutions and involve the right people. You dare to ask questions, share your knowledge, and bring colleagues along with your ideas. In doing so, you do not lose sight of the common goal: good planning and the best possible care for the patient.

To make your job a success, you have at least

• HBO (Higher Professional Education) level of working and thinking
• Experience with complex planning issues and an affinity for healthcare logistics and capacity management.
• A proactive attitude and the ability to independently identify and resolve bottlenecks.
• Good communication skills and the ability to connect different interests
• Good digital skills; experience with Epic is a plus
• Good knowledge of Excel and an affinity for dashboards and data.
• Knowledge of medical terminology or the willingness to deepen your knowledge in this area.

At St. Antonius, you work on (highly) complex care with your heart in the right place. We are a top-clinical teaching hospital where patient care, education, and research go hand in hand. Thanks to our size, we make a real impact, but remain agile and personal.

Our clinical priorities are heart & vascular, lungs, and cancer. Additionally, we are one of the leaders in the Netherlands in the field of value-based care. This means that we do not only look at what is medically possible, but especially at what truly makes a difference for the individual patient. By structurally measuring the most important outcomes and learning together, also with the other Santeon hospitals, we make care a little bit better every day. With us, every employee, including you, makes a difference for the patient.

You can apply until 18 November next via the apply button below. We look forward to meeting you!
