Job description

Mersey Care NHS Foundation Trust is looking for highly motivated and enthusiastic volunteers who are committed to helping improve patient safety as aPatient Safety Partner (PSP).

Our Patient Safety Partners will be actively involved in the continuing design of safer healthcare and will:

  • Support the Trust to develop and embed the new Patient Safety Incident Response Framework (PSIRF) and make sure we continue to consider and prioritise the views of our service users, patients, carers and families in our response to patient safety incidents
  • Share ideas to further improve and implement patient safety across the Trust.

At the heart of all we do is our commitment to ‘perfect care’ – care that is safe, effective, positively experienced, timely, equitable and efficient. We support our staff to do the best job they can and work alongside service users, their families, and carers to design and develop future services together. We’re currently delivering a programme of organisational and service transformation to significantly improve the quality of the services we provide and safely reduce cost as we do so.
