Clinical Downtime Coordinator - Nursing Administration

Make an impact when it matters most.
This role leads hospital-wide readiness and response during system outages and cyber events—ensuring patient care continues safely across all clinical departments.

This is a high-visibility role working closely with clinical leaders, IT, and executive teams to strengthen emergency preparedness and operational continuity.

What You’ll Do

• Lead hospital-wide clinical downtime preparedness and response
• Develop and maintain downtime and business continuity playbooks
• Coordinate downtime drills and real-time incident response
• Partner with Nursing, Pharmacy, Lab, Radiology, and Registration to optimize manual workflows
• Train clinical teams on downtime procedures and emergency readiness
• Track patient safety risks and lead post-event improvement efforts

During Critical Events

• Serve as the on-site Clinical Downtime Lead in Incident Command
• Coordinate manual clinical workflows across departments
• Provide real-time updates to leadership
• Monitor and mitigate patient safety risks

Ideal Background

We welcome candidates from:

• Nursing (RN), Clinical Operations, or Informatics
• Emergency Management or Patient Safety
• 3+ years in hospital-based clinical roles

Strong communication, training, and coordination skills are key.

Why This Role Stands Out

• Direct impact on patient safety during critical events
• Exposure to executive leadership & hospital operations
• Unique blend of clinical, operational, and cybersecurity preparedness work

Opportunity to lead system-wide initiatives
