Patient Safety Partner

Why not become a volunteer?
Would you like to shape the future of patient safety with Croydon Health Services?

We are looking for two Patient Safety Partners to sit on our patient safety committees and ensure decisions are considered from a patient/service user perspective. The ideal person will have a passion for Patient Safety and a willingness to consider issues from various perspectives that may be different to their own perspective. They will also have a willingness to represent the voice of a wide range of service users including children & Young people, their parents, People with Learning disabilities & Autism, to mention but a few.

This is a great opportunity to shape the patient safety strategy for Croydon Health Services by bring the patient voice to what we do.

Some examples of what you might be involved in include;
- Attendance at relevant Quality & Safety Committees to contribute and support compliance monitoring and continuous improvement
- Acting as an adviser/critical friend to the Patient Safety Team & relevant Committees in the development & delivery of the Patient Safety Strategy
- Putting forward views on behalf of the wider Community/Groups of patients (not own opinion only)
- Evaluating a range of information and evidence and communicating with senior leaders about strategic issues, as an advocate for patient safety.
- Championing Quality & Safety Improvements to support the trust in implementation of the relevant strategy & policy

In turn we will reimburse your expenses, provide relevant training and offer one to one support.
