About the Role
We are looking for a dynamic, empathetic, and highly organised individual to join our Patient Experience Team as a Facilitator on a fixed-term basis to cover maternity leave. This pivotal role ensures that patients, families, and carers feel heard, supported, and empowered throughout their healthcare journey.
As Patient Experience Facilitator, you will lead the coordination of complaints and PALS enquiries, ensuring they are managed with compassion and resolved within agreed timeframes. You will contribute to key patient experience initiatives, oversee statutory surveys such as the Friends and Family Test, and help drive service improvements informed by patient feedback.
Working collaboratively with clinical teams, senior leaders, and external partners, you will ensure that patient insights are translated into meaningful action. The role also includes data management, governance reporting, and representing the patient voice at divisional meetings.
This is a rewarding opportunity to influence how care is delivered across the Trust. If you are passionate about patient-centred care, thrive in a fast-paced environment, and excel in communication and coordination, we encourage you to apply.
