THANKS Richard 👍
Here’s the FULL LIST of PATIENT CARE COORDINATOR INTERVIEW QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS:
Q1. Tell me about yourself.
SUGGESTED ANSWER:
“Thank you for giving me the opportunity to be interviewed for this patient care coordinator position today. I would describe myself as a caring, standards-driven, and industrious care coordinator who can easily fit into any healthcare team to ensure the highest standards of care are provided. Over the years, I have experienced various situations that have given me the skills and experience to become a competent healthcare worker. I have experience in creating numerous patient care plans, and I always ensure they are tailored to the needs of the patient. I am an excellent communicator and listener who can quickly deal with challenging situations, liaise with carers and their families, and collaborate with other healthcare professionals. If you hire me, I will always take responsibility for my ongoing professional development, I will adhere to all rules and procedures relevant to my role, and I will help your healthcare organisation improve, move forward, and provide first-class treatment and care to everyone regardless of the circumstances or background.”
Q2. Why do you want to be a patient care coordinator?
SUGGESTED ANSWER
“I want to be a care coordinator primarily because I want a job where I can actually see the difference my work is having on the patients I am serving. I am a people person, I have genuine empathy towards others, and the role of a patient care coordinator is very much suited to my natural attributes. I want to be a care coordinator because I enjoy collaborating with other people, the working hours are very much suited to my personal life, and the job gives me lots of variety. I am a resilient person who wants to be pushed and challenged in my work and I think I would be bored sitting in an office doing the same thing day in, day out. Being a care coordinator is a job that comes with tremendous responsibility, which I enjoy, and you get the opportunity to have a say in how the treatment and care of patients develops and improves in the healthcare organisation you are a part of.”

Yes! I Want To Pass My Interview!PATIENT CARE COORDINATOR JOB DESCRIPTION
A patient care coordinator is responsible for meeting with patients and their carers/family members to discuss their requirements, explain the services that are available to them, and create a personalised patient care plan that is tailored to their specific needs.
As a patient care coordinator, you will include the patient and their careers or family in discussions about their care plan. Once the specific care plan has been created, you will monitor their progress and amend the plan as needed. It will also be your priority to ensure the provision of care provided is in line with best practice guidelines and procedures determined by the NHS Trust or healthcare organisation you are employed by.
As a patient care coordinator, you will liaise with other healthcare professionals to gain their input on the healthcare plan of your patients including physiotherapists, general practitioners, and osteopaths for example. You will be required to visit the patient periodically and ensure excellent lines of communication are maintained and keep accurate and concise records and documentation following every visit or communication. This is important so other healthcare professionals are aware of the progress the patient is making, any issues they are experiencing, and the medication administered.
Whilst caring for your patients as a care coordinator, you will demonstrate empathy, encourage awareness of their surroundings, develop and maintain an effective care plan, and work to improve their confidence levels whilst educating them so they can make the right decisions about their own health and well-being. At all times whilst working as a patient care coordinator, you must follow your training and the guidelines and procedures of the healthcare organization or NHS Trust you are employed by.
THE SKILLS AND QUALITIES NEEDED TO BE A PATIENT CARE COORDINATOR
There are various essential skills and qualities needed to be a patient care coordinator. You must be organised in your work, be willing to carry out duties outside of your job description, be flexible and adaptable to meet the needs of your patients and the healthcare organization you are employed by, and take ownership of your ongoing professional development.
You must be a good problem-solver, be able to deal with conflicting views from patients, their careers, families, and other healthcare professionals on the most appropriate care for the patient, and also be a good communicator and listener.
Other vital skills and qualities include empathy and understanding, resilience and confidence, outstanding team working skills, the ability to demonstrate the values of your employer in your everyday work, always maintaining a safe working environment, and having in-depth knowledge of all healthcare policies, rules, and working practices.
4 ESSENTIAL TIPS FOR HELPING YOU PREPARE FOR A PATIENT CARE COORDINATOR JOB INTERVIEW
Regardless of the NHS Trust or healthcare organization you are applying to work for as a patient care coordinator, the four tips that follow will help you to get the most from your preparation.
CARE COORDINATOR INTERVIEW TIP #1
All NHS Trusts and healthcare organisations have a set of core values they expect their staff to adhere to. Before you attend your interview, it is important to familiarise yourself with the values and consider previous situations you have been in where you demonstrated each one.
CARE COORDINATOR INTERVIEW TIP #2
It is a well-known fact that those candidates who read a copy of the job description before they attend their care coordinator interview are more likely to be successful. Every patient care coordinator job advert comes with a job description – by reading it you will quickly be able to determine the essential skills and qualities needed to perform the role to a competent standard and it will also help you to answer interview questions such as what are your strengths, what can you bring to the role, and why should we hire you?
CARE COORDINATOR INTERVIEW TIP #3
As a patient care coordinator, you must deal with patients in various situations on a daily basis. We strongly recommend you watch and study the following ‘dealing with patients’ training tutorial before attending your interview as it will give you an idea of the type of interview questions you may have to answer:
CARE COORDINATOR INTERVIEW TIP #4
At the end of your interview, there is a strong possibility you will have the opportunity to ask some questions of your own. Avoid questions such as working conditions, salary, or perks of the job. Instead, consider asking any of the following four questions that will demonstrate you are a forward-thinking, results-focused patient care coordinator:
- If I am successful, how could I help you within my role to help you provide a better service to your patients?
- What are the major challenges you are currently facing within this particular healthcare organisation and what could I do to help you overcome them?
- What’s the culture like in this healthcare organisation?
- Can you tell me more about the healthcare team I would be a part of in this role?
