Patient Safety Partners :: East Lancashire Hospitals NHS Trust

We're committed to offering safe services and we need your help!

The Patient Safety Partner (PSP) is a new and evolving role developed by NHS England to help improve patient safety across health care in the UK.

Here at East Lancashire Hospitals NHS Trust (ELHT), we are excited to welcome a team of PSPs to work alongside our staff, patients, and families to influence and improve safety within our hospital.

PSPs can be patients, carers, family members or other lay people (including NHS staff from another organisation).

This is a great opportunity to share your interests, experiences, and skills to help develop the new PSP role and be a part of our team.
