Patient Safety Partner

Epsom | Remote Working | Bank Contract | Part-Time

Working on the bank means you are not contracted to a set number of hours per week but instead work on an ad-hoc basis to suit the needs of the business and your availability.

We are currently looking to employ two new Patient Safety Partners within the charity, working from home but with an expectation to attend meetings at Hospital sites on occasions. One role is for our northern region which covers 11 sites ranging from Wolverhampton to Edinburgh; the other for our London/Central region. Continue your journey with us whilst we’ll support you to be your best.

Patient Safety Partners (PSPs) bring vital perspectives, challenge and insight to the work of Nuffield Health. As one of our Patient Safety Partners your lived experience as a patient, service user, carer or advocate will directly influence how we design and deliver better healthcare services.

As a PSP, you”ll be supported by both our current PSP and the Quality Lead for Patient Safety and Clinical Effectiveness who will provide mentorship, training and opportunities to collaborate with other PSPs and site staff.

Role Responsibilities:

• Ensure your perspective on patient safety is heard and has real impact for future patients.

• Influence hospital-based Quality and Safety Committees as requested by the Quality Lead for Patient Safety and Clinical Effectiveness via the Patient Safety Improvement Network.

• Participate in hospital Patient Experience Forums, meeting other patients and staff who have an interest and commitment to patient safety.

• Review local responses to patient safety complaints or incidents as requested by the Site Senior Leadership Teams via the Patient Safety Improvement Network.

• Work alongside healthcare professionals, decision-makers and experts at hospital level to support projects that match your interests, skills and availability as requested by site Senior Leadership Teams via the Patient Safety Improvement Forum.

• Learn new skills and connect with people passionate about patient safety.

• Help shape the future of healthcare in Nuffield Health.
