Job description

Are you looking for a new career opportunity with an exciting company?! Then we've got the right team for you! In this role, you're responsible for the duties listed below., * Serve as the ED's dedicated, embedded point of contact for all Paragon EMR issues and requests

  • Listen to physicians, APPs, and nursing staff to understand workflow pain points and translate them into actionable system fixes or workarounds
  • Identify gaps in current system configuration and develop interim solutions while longer-term fixes are implemented
  • Document workarounds, configurations, and processes clearly so nothing lives only in your head
  • Act as the direct line between the ED and the Paragon implementation team, bypassing the general hospital IT queue when ED-specific issues arise
  • Communicate clearly with Paragon representatives about ED workflow needs, escalating and tracking issues through to resolution
  • Participate in implementation and optimization conversations, ensuring the ED's needs are represented and prioritized
  • Stay current on Paragon updates, new functionality, and best practices relevant to emergency department workflows
  • Train ED clinical and administrative staff on system features, updates, and workarounds as they roll out
  • Create simple, practical reference materials that providers can use in a fast-moving environment
  • Support new provider onboarding from a systems perspective
  • Serve as a resource for staff who are still building confidence in the new system
  • Identify and prioritize opportunities to improve how Paragon is configured for ED-specific workflows, including documentation, order sets, diagnosis capture, and patient flow
  • Collaborate with the ED Director, Director of ED Administration, and clinical leadership to align system capabilities with operational goals
  • Track recurring issues and advocate for permanent solutions rather than letting workarounds become permanent fixtures

Requirements

  • Experience working in a hospital or ED environment/workflows
  • Strong communicator who has demonstrated department liaison experience, * Hands-on experience with Paragon (Meditech Expanse/Paragon) strongly preferred; candidates with deep experience in comparable hospital EMR platforms will be considered
  • Background in hospital or ED-specific workflows, either from an IT/informatics role or from clinical experience combined with systems work
  • Strong communicator who can translate between clinical staff and technical teams without losing either audience
  • Self-directed and comfortable operating without a lot of structure or hand-holding, especially in a dynamic, recently-implemented environment
  • Someone who sees a broken workflow and wants to fix it, not just log it
  • Patient with clinical staff who are learning a new system while running a busy department
  • Experience creating training materials or delivering end-user training is a plus
