**About the Opportunity**:
Nova Scotia Health has established a new Care Coordination Centre that will improve how we coordinate the movement of patients throughout their healthcare journey. It will use artificial intelligence, predictive analytics, and patient status to provide a real-time view of access to care, patient flow, and health system resources to support decision-making. It will also generate actionable insights to drive continuous improvements in how healthcare is delivered to improve the quality of patient care. Located at the Halifax Infirmary site of the QEII Health Sciences Centre, the Care Coordination Centre supports teams to identify issues and find solutions together, using real-time data. This will translate into improved patient access and flow, efficient bed management and discharge planning, better scheduling of staff, and more collaboration across health zones across the province.

Reporting to the Senior Director of Care Coordination Centre (C3), the Provincial Patient Flow Manager is a fully realigned and integrated role, providing administrative functions. Using sound principles of Utilization Management the role is responsible for facilitating patient placement and transfer provincially by identifying and overcoming delays in admission, transfer and discharge. This position involves liaising with the zone Access and Flow Teams, Health Service Directors, Continuing Care, Emergency Health Services (EHS) and other Health Care Agencies within and external to NSH and possibly in other provinces.

The daily focus of this role is to oversee and support provincial access and flow operations, serving as a point of escalation in patient flow decisions. The Provincial Patient Flow Manager facilitates provincial-level meetings and leverages data to make informed decisions, working with zone Access and Flow and operational teams.
