Job description
  • Job Summary
  • UBC Health is in the process of establishing a Centre for Innovation in Collaborative Health Education and Team-Based Care. The goal is to create a first-of-its-kind provincial centre, providing an opportunity for students, educators, healthcare professionals, researchers, and patients to work together to improve the quality of healthcare delivery through innovations in interprofessional learning, team-based care, and research. A core component of the centre will be a new, purpose-built team-based care teaching clinic in the Gateway building on the UBC Point Grey campus. As an integrated member of UBC Health, the Program Assistant will provide administrative and programming support for the Centre’s education, quality improvement (QI), evaluation and research programs, much of which will take place in the Gateway teaching clinic. The position works collaboratively with members of the Centre and Gateway teaching clinic to coordinate learners, support events, initiatives and general clerical and administrative tasks as assigned.
  • Organizational Status
  • UBC Health is responsible for driving the vision of the Vice-President, Health portfolio by promoting an integrated approach to collaboration amongst all health programs at UBC, within and across campuses and distributed sites, and with health sector partners. UBC Health has a mandate to enable and enhance interprofessional and collaborative health education and research to train people, develop knowledge, and shape policy, seeking to address inequities and improve the systems that produce health. UBC Health senior leadership will provide strategic guidance on the education and research programming that takes place within the Centre and teaching clinic. The Program Assistant will report to the Program Manager. The incumbent works in close collaboration with other members of the UBC Health team and the Gateway teaching clinic, as well as learners, faculty and staff members from various academic units, and a wide range of partners internal and external to UBC, including individual patients, caregivers, and non-profit organizations across the Lower Mainland and throughout BC.
  • Work Performed
  • As the Centre and teaching clinic are newly developing initiatives, the successful candidate will contribute to the development, documentation, and implementation of the administrative procedures employed at the Centre and teaching clinic. Over time, the procedures will be evaluated and iterated to facilitate effective team-based programming.
  • Provide administrative and logistical support for education, QI, evaluation, and research programs and initiatives.
  • Assist with the development, documentation and maintenance of a broad range of knowledge around Gateway programs and UBC administrative procedures and policies.
  • In collaboration with the Administrator, create basic financial reports and develop and maintain systems to track expenses and funding, including with partners on co-sponsored events, conferences and projects.
  • Perform other related duties, as required.
  • Consequence of Error / Judgement
  • The Program Assistant role is essential to the effective administration of the Gateway Centre and teaching clinic’s education programming and QI, evaluation and research initiatives. Work is performed in accordance with established procedures and well-defined standard practices. The Program Assistant is required to exercise professional judgment and initiative while undertaking all responsibilities and developing relationships. Inappropriate actions, errors in performance or indiscretions in judgment can have negative impact on the program and the University, and may result in legal action, negative public relations, financial repercussions, and loss of credibility in the department’s ability to demonstrate value in the areas of collaborative health education, research and health systems.
  • Supervision Received
  • Reports directly to the Program Manager. Works independently and interdependently in various settings. The incumbent must be self-directed and able to manage and work independently.
