Cambridge, United Kingdom Cambridgeshire and Peterborough NHS Foundation Trust Full time

This is a fantastic opportunity to be a pioneer to shaping the future culture of Cambridgeshire and Peterborough NHS Foundation Trust (CPFT), by ensuring patients and carers are“present, powerful and involved” in improvements to their own safety and the safety of the organisation.

The new Patient Safety Partners (PSPs) are roles that are dedicated to helping us do this, by empowering patients and carers to be partners in their own safety and by bringing a patient and carer perspective to improving patient safety in CPFT.

**PSP involvement will include**:

- promoting openness and transparency
- supporting the organisation to consider how processes appear and feel to patients
- helping the organisation know what is important to patients
- helping the organisation identify risk by hearing what feels unsafe to patients
- supporting the prioritisation of risks that need to be addressed and subsequent improvement programmes
- supporting the organisation in developing an action plan following an investigation, particularly so that actions address the needs of patients
- helping the organisation produce patient information that patients understand and can access.

Cambridgeshire & Peterborough NHS Foundation Trust is a health & social care organisation dedicated to providing high quality care with compassion to improve the health & wellbeing of the people we care for, as well as supporting & empowering them to lead a fulfilling life.

Our clinical teams deliver many NHS services not only via inpatient and primary care setting but also with the community. These services include Children, Adult & Older Peoples mental & physical health, Forensic & Specialist mental health, Learning Disabilities, Primary Care & Liaison psychiatry, Substance misuse, Social care, Research & Development.

A patient safety partner (PSP) is actively involved in the design of safer healthcare at all levels in the organisation.

This includes roles in safety governance - eg sitting on relevant committees to support compliance monitoring and how safety issues should be addressed and providing appropriate challenge to ensure learning and change - and in the development and implementation of relevant strategy and policy.

The PSP should ensure that any committee/group of which they are a member considers and prioritises the service user, patient, carer and family perspective and champions a diversity of views.

Further detail on specific roles is provided in individual task descriptions. These include the time commitment for specific roles and frequency of meetings where appropriate

The PSP will need to comply with relevant policies and maintain strict confidentiality in respect to discussions and information when required.
