Title:

Health Unit Coordinator PT 7a-7p

The ED Unit Clerks serve as department facilitators, aiding in all processes outside of direct patient care to ensure patient care can happen correctly and efficiently. They work closely with the ED Charge Nurse and the ED Flow Coordinator to manage the department and patient flow. The ED Unit Clerk is responsible for all clerical duties within the department, including answering a 13-line phone system, encounter scanning, copying, and faxing.

They work directly with physicians within their assigned team to facilitate tasks that aid in patient care, such as paging and contacting physicians, obtaining medical records, and arranging transportation to radiology. They monitor the 13-bed Patient Safety Surveillance system and arrange EMS transportation out of the Emergency Department. Employees providing direct patient care must demonstrate competencies specific to the population served.
