Clinical Safety Officer (Band 7) Keighley, England
Job description
There has never been a better time to join us as we embark on the next exciting phase of digital development with the introduction of a new EPR. For the Trust, our EPR is much more than a digital version of written notes. It will bring about a transformation to the way we provide care to patients and we’re looking for energetic, forward-thinkers to join the team.
The Trust is already acknowledged as a pioneer in the delivery of digital healthcare, with its award-winning digital care hub delivering care round-the-clock care homes, prisons and people in their own homes.
We are seeking to appoint a Clinical Safety Officer to support the expanding Clinical Informatics team.
The Trust is committed to allowing our colleagues to work flexibly in when, how and where you work where we are able. We can support agile working for some of our roles, where you can work a combination of on site and remotely, and if successful you should talk to your manager about your individual arrangements. There would be an expectation for colleagues to return to their base of work, where required. We would also welcome applications from those wishing to work on a job share or part time basis, for example where this supports you to continue to work in your current role.
You will be required to act as the Trust Clinical Safety Officer coordinating clinical safety activities associated with EPR and wider digital health systems across the organisation.
You will have proven experience working in the field supporting a range of Digital projects and ideally proficient as a clinical safety officer.
You will have excellent organisational and communication skills and be able to work across a range of multidisciplinary teams.
As part of the Trusts commitment to flexible working there will be some opportunity to work from home and in the office on a rota basis, this would be reviewed regularly in line with service requirements.
To be successful you will need to have significant knowledge of the statutory requirements in relation to the clinical safety throughout the life cycle of IT health systems including DCB0129 and DCB0160 standards.
We want to attract staff who embrace our Right Care behaviours of compassion, a commitment to quality of care and working together for patients – we want to make these part of our DNA.
We are always looking for enterprising and innovative approaches to the way we provide our services. We are a national centre for telemedicine and introduced telehealth to the UK offender healthcare sector and also provide the service to patients in their care homes. Community matters to us and we are supported by 400 dedicated volunteers and have strong links with Bradford University, Craven College and Leeds City College to ensure we inspire the workforce of the future.
We want to attract staff who embrace our Right Care behaviours of compassion, a commitment to quality of care and working together for patients we want to make these part of our DNA.
