We have agreed an ambitious One Digital Strategy Across our Digital portfolioand we are working to the following principles of which the Clinical Safety Officer role is crucial to delivering:
1. Getting the basics right - creating reliable, modern digital foundations that support daily operations.
2. Putting users' needs first - implementing systems that work for our people, reducing complexity, and making delivering and receiving care easier.
3. Using digital as a tool for transformation - solving bigger challenges and adopting innovations faster by working together across UHL and UHN.
4. Embracing emerging technology - taking bold steps with innovative solutions, from artificial intelligence to process mining, placing these at the core of care delivery.
5. Bringing our data together - transforming care through unified data, making insights accessible to everyone to empower staff and enhance research
6. Harnessing strategic partnerships - increasing our impact through collaboration with NHS organisations, academic institutions, and private sector partners.
7. Creating and embedding one digital - delivering a unified approach to digital and data transformation across our organisations
The Clinical Safety Officer (CSO) will work as part of a dynamic digital team. The post holder will have an extensive understanding of digital clinical safety and be responsible for efficient and effective management of the Digital Clinical Safety portfolio within the multiple digital projects across the Trust.
The role is responsible for providing leadership, guidance, support, specialist knowledge and clinical safety review and approval for the implementation of new digital solutions and upgrades to existing digital solutions across the portfolio of requests.
Our new strategy, developed with the support and feedback of colleagues, patients, and partners, is our compass for the next seven years (2023-2030).
We have four primary goals:
• high-quality care for all,
• being a great place to work,
• partnerships for impact, and
• research and education excellence
And we will embed health equality in all we do - taking active steps to reduce the avoidable differences in healthcare that some people face, working in partnership with communities.
Our strategy is underpinned by new values and we will work to ensure they are an everyday reality for all:
• we are compassionate,
• we are proud,
• we are inclusive, and
• we are one team
This is an exciting moment as we look to the future with clarity on what we already do well and where we need to focus our energies to make an even bigger difference for the people we serve.
