Managing the Trust data quality team and function, you will work closely with clinical, managerial, and operational colleagues to enhance data acquisition processes, improve data quality and completeness, and to help design processes to embed good data practice and awareness within operational teams.
Following the implementation of a new digital health record, Epic, in March 2023 this new role has been established to help bring greater governance and focus to data assurance as the Trust continues to develop its use of data and digital technology.
