Become an Expert by Experience – Share Your Voice and Help Shape Better Care

We are seeking individuals with lived experience of Mental Health, Learning Disability and/or Autism (MHLDA) inpatient settings, or those who have supported someone as a carer or advocate. This role is not suitable for anyone currently receiving inpatient care.

You will join Care, Education and Treatment Review (C(E)TR) panels as an Expert by Experience (EbyE), working alongside Clinical Reviewers and the Delegated Chair to review a person’s care, education (if under 18) and treatment in hospital settings. Your insight may come from personal experience as someone with a learning disability and/or autism, or as a family member or carer for someone who uses services, where the system is challenged by complex care needs.

Experts by Experience bring a vital perspective to ensure reviews reflect lived experience, promote accessibility and reasonable adjustments, support communication with the person and family, and uphold equality, diversity and human rights.

Reviews take place over one day, with some preparation beforehand. After the review, you will help check the final report for accuracy. Ongoing involvement is not expected.

If you are passionate about improving services and ensuring people’s voices are heard, we would love to hear from you.

You will not have employee status.

Care, (Education) and Treatment Review (C(E)TRs) provide the opportunity that the care and treatment are effective and that they are supported to leave hospital as soon as possible. This is through key lines of enquiry (KLOE) and subsequent recommendations.

C(E)TRs are carried out by an independent panel of people. This includes a commissioner who funds the person’s care (‘Chair’ – or a person delegated on behalf of East of England PC), an expert by experience (EbE), who is an autistic person or a person with a learning disability or a family carer with lived experience of services. The panel also includes a clinical expert who is qualified to work in health & care.

The East of England Provider Collaborative (EoEPC) includes six NHS trusts delivering specialised mental health and learning disability, autism inpatient care.

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

Our clinical teams deliver many NHS services, not only via inpatient and primary care settings, but also within the community. These services include children's, adult and older people's mental health, forensic and specialist mental health, learning disabilities, primary care and liaison psychiatry, substance misuse, social care, research and development.

To achieve our goal, we look to recruit high-calibre candidates who share our vision and values. As an equal opportunities employer, we encourage applications from all sectors of the community, particularly from under-represented groups including people with long term conditions and members of our ethnic minority and LGBTQ+ communities.

Please be advised we reserve the right to close adverts earlier than the closing date should we receive sufficient applications.
