Vacancy - Two Deputy Freedom To Speak Up Guardian - AFC band 6

An exciting opportunity has arisen to get involved in the work of the Freedom to Speak Up Guardian within East Midlands Ambulance Service NHS Trust.

Freedom to Speak Up Guardians help protect patient safety and the quality of care and improve the experience of workers by ensuring that all workers are supported in speaking up and a positive culture of speaking up is fostered. Two substantive Deputy Freedom to Speak Up Guardian opportunities have been created to support the Freedom to Speak Up Guardian to hear and manage concerns, raise awareness, and build confidence in speaking up, and work with colleagues across the Trust to promote a safe working environment for all.

The two positions are full-time substantive roles and will work with the Freedom to Speak Up Guardian to provide confidential support and advice to individuals raising issues or concerns about anything that gets in the way of patient care or affects their working life, ensuring that there are no repercussions for the person who raised the concerns. The Deputy Freedom to Speak Up Guardian also works to raise the profile of Freedom to Speak Up across the Trust.
