- Work with services within the Board to ensure that appropriate key performance indicators (KPIs) and metrics to measure clinical effectiveness and outcomes, patient experiences, and quality and safety are used to inform a quality report for the Board.
- Analyse data, identify areas for improvement, and implement evidence-based practices to drive quality improvement initiatives.
- Support the Medical Quality and Safety Lead and Head of Nursing to develop and embed robust audit and assurance processes within the Clinical Board.
- Help to promote and support an effective audit program within the Clinical Board and produce a yearly high-level audit report, in conjunction with other audit leads within the Clinical Board, to demonstrate the positive effects for patient outcomes and pathways.
Requirements:
