1 week ago

Hatfield, Hertfordshire, United Kingdom Hertfordshire Partnership University NHS Foundation Trust Full time

This is a great opportunity for a consultant seeking part time flexible working which offers 5 PAs as core duties providing consultant input to the Mortality Governance Team.

The Mortality Governance Team is well established, with ongoing evolution. It works within national, regional and local Mortality Governance frameworks, assists in Trust compliance with Medical Examiner requirements, and networks widely mainly with Trust staff, also externally.

It uses data from deceased patient records, as well as from other sources such as Prevention of Future Deaths reports from Coroners published nationally. It uses data and data analysis to advise on good practice themes and learning themes, and recommend changes on team, individual and Trust levels.

Main duties of the job The post holder helps to provide information from which teams and the organisation can learn as an important part of quality improvement and patient safety. Both good practice and learning is identified, to contribute to the Trust's being a learning organisation, in the context of a just culture.

Most of the time is spent on undertaking mortality case record reviews using structured judgement review methodology:
  • undertake structured judgement reviews (SJRs) in keeping with national guidance.
  • make independent opinions about care that must be evidenced, fair and communicated clearly.
  • give an opinion on whether a death was more likely that not to have been due to a problem in care.
  • Discission of each SJR with either the Lead Consultant Psychiatrist for Mortality Governance or the Medical Director
me time is devoted to jointly screening deaths with the Mortality Governance Lead to categorise the death, and to determine whether the deceased person's notes should be subject to structured judgement review if a 'red flag' is met.

Networking with change implementation colleagues (treating teams and managers), is a crucial part of the role to help drive forward quality improvement and patient safety. This involves working within existing systems, as well as challenging systems and practices that may require improvement and change. This requires being open, clear, succinct, fair and sensitive.

The Mortality Governance Team works closely and synergistically with the Safer Care Team. About us In recent years the Trust has been successful in acquiring the tender for the provision of specialist Learning disability services in Norfolk, North Essex and Buckinghamshire. The Trust covers a mix of rural and urban areas, including the City of St Albans, the large towns of Watford, Welwyn Garden City and Stevenage, and the smaller towns of Hemel Hempstead, Radlett, Berkhamsted, Harpenden, Hertford, Ware, Bishops Stortford, Hitchin and Letchworth.

Hertfordshire Social Services have divided the county into four areas. The county has three Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs). West Hertfordshire is served by Herts Valleys CCG and Dacorum and East and North Hertfordshire is served by East and North Herts CCG.

A Single Point of Access was introduced in 2012 to streamline access to mental health and learning disability services in Hertfordshire the Trust offers self-referral for clients and carers.

People of working age from South West Hertfordshire who require an acute psychiatric inpatient admission are currently treated at Kingfisher Court, the 70 bedded Inpatient Unit located near Radlett, if a bed is available. Otherwise, they may be admitted to an inpatient bed elsewhere in the Trust. There are two Crisis Rehabilitation Home Treatment Teams (CRHTT) covering the county which act as the gatekeeper to the Acute Care Pathway and provides home treatment for people experiencing acute episodes of mental ill health.
