About The Role

Patient Safety Partner – Volunteer – Reading, Berkshire and remote working

Practice Plus Group’s Primary Care division is seeking a number of Patient Safety Partners (PSPs) who have recently used our 111 or Urgent Care Service (UCS).

Patient Safety Partners will engage with PPG in all aspects of safety governance; oversee how safety issues are addressed, provide challenge to how we develop and implement our patient safety strategies, ensure the patient, carer and family are at the heart of all we do.

About You

Successful candidates will need to comply with relevant PPG policies and maintain strict confidentiality in respect to discussions and information. The role is voluntary (although reasonable expenses will be reimbursed) and the types and amount of involvement can vary according to skills and experience.

We are currently looking for two PSPs to work 1-2 days a month as part of our commitment to involving patients and the public in patient safety.  PSPs provide an important perspective on patient safety and reinforce the patient voice at all levels in the organisation.  PSPs support a patient-centred approach to safer healthcare.

This role will offer remote working but you will be required to travel to our Head Office in Reading (Berkshire), on occasion.
