Crynodeb
The Patient Safety and Quality Officer (Band 7) plays a vital role in supporting the Surgical Division to deliver safe, highquality care. Working alongside the Quality and Patient Safety Lead Nurse, you will provide specialist patient safety, quality and governance support across a large and diverse portfolio including theatres, anaesthetics, critical care, trauma and orthopaedics, ENT, ophthalmology and surgical wards. You will lead and coordinate Patient Safety Incident Investigations (PSIIs) and learning responses in line with the Patient Safety Incident Response Framework (PSIRF), using systems thinking, human factors principles and recognised investigation tools. You will analyse events, identify contributory factors, produce highquality reports and support teams to develop meaningful, sustainable safety actions. Compassionate engagement with staff, patients and families is central to the role, including supporting Duty of Candour and ensuring an open, fair and supportive safety culture. The role contributes to divisional governance through expert advice on risk assessment and mitigation, maintaining accurate risk registers, triangulating insights from incidents, complaints and patient experience, and supporting regulatory and assurance processes. You will also assist with clinical effectiveness activity, audit coordination and data quality. Quality improvement is a core part of the role. You will help embed improvement approaches across specialties, working with clinical teams and QI colleagues to spread good practice, interpret data and drive measurable improvements. You will also support complaint reviews, ensuring investigations are highquality and lead to service improvements. As a visible leader, you will build strong relationships with clinical and operational teams, provide coaching and expertise, and line manage staff within the patient safety and quality function. You will represent the division in governance meetings, produce clear and insightful reports, and help strengthen digital systems that support patient safety. This role requires curiosity, compassion and confidence, alongside strong analytical skills and the ability to influence across professional groups. It offers an opportunity to make a meaningful impact on safety, culture and patient experience within a highperforming Surgical Division.
