SouthendonSea, United Kingdom Mid and South Essex NHS Foundation Trust Full time

Do you have what it takes or are you looking for a new challenge?

We have an exciting opportunity for someone with the right experience to join the MSEFT Patient safety Team. We are a small team with a real focus on the patient and staff experience.

The Head of Patient Safety will have a key role in shaping the policies and strategies for learning from incidents across divisions in MSE in order to ensure high quality, safe health care services for our patients.

As a senior member of the team you will be at the centre of this significant change to ways of working, supporting the Trust to embed a proactive safety culture and focus on system improvements that will help us deliver excellent care for our patients.

The Head of Patient Safety will provide expert advice and guidance throughout the Trust on the management of patient safety incidents.

We have implemented and developed a Trust wide incident management system and are embedding the new Patient Safety Incident Response Framework within the Trust.

You will provide expert advice and guidance throughout the Trust and lead on the Trust processes for patient safety incidents. This will include playing a key part in meeting the requirements of the Patient Safety Strategy, embedding the new Patient Safety Incident Framework.

You will play a pivotal role in supporting the divisional clinical governance teams to ensure that the Trust develops robust systems and mechanisms to ensure that it is continuously and effectively learning from patient safety incidents and risks so that practice is changed.

You will will be responsible for the effective leadership and management of the trust’s patient safety team and capable of demonstrating high levels of best practice to ensure compliance with all relevant legislation.

You will be an integral support for the organisation’s way of working, model its values and leadership behaviours, and champion safe, effective, and personal care.

Mid and South Essex NHS Foundation Trust is now one of the largest in the country, with a workforce of approximately 15,000 who serve a population of 1.2 million people.

We work together, and in conjunction with MSE Health and Care Partnership, to deliver excellent local and specialist services, to improve the health and wellbeing of our patients in a compassionate way, and provide a respectful, but vibrant place for staff to develop, innovate and build careers.

From facilities through to consultant specialists we want to be the best, to achieve this we need to recruit not just those who are the finest in their field but also those who have the potential to be. Yes, experience is important but so is outlook - if you are dynamic, forward-thinking and enthusiastic we want you to join us.

We not only offer you a good working environment with flexible working opportunities, but also the opportunity to develop your career with access to appropriate training for your job and the support to succeed and progress.
