All people across Brighton and Hove, Crawley, mid-Sussex and Horsham with a musculoskeletal condition are referred to our service.

We want to make a person’s care as straightforward as possible, by providing one point of contact as close to their home as we can.

  • Communication is a key part of this telephone-based role, working with local GP practices, hospitals, community staff and clinicians to get patients to the most appropriate services for their needs accurately and on time.
  • Our Patient Care Advisors work a split week in the physiotherapy departments in both Crawley Hospital and Horsham Hospital.
The successful candidate will be employed by Sussex Community NHS Foundation Trust but will work within the Sussex MSK Partnership service.
