HSSIB operates under the Health and Care Act 2022 to improve patient safety across England through independent investigations. We work collaboratively across the NHS and wider system to share learning and strengthen investigation capability. Our organisation is focused on improving patient safety with expert, systems‑based investigations; our reports do not apportion blame or liability but identify learning to make healthcare safer for patients, families and staff.
We have recently launched a new strategy to build investigation excellence across healthcare and strengthen the capability of healthcare investigations. We are seeking an experienced Safety Investigator (Trainer) to join our team. This unique role combines high‑quality investigation with hands‑on training to build capability across the healthcare system.
Core Functions
- Conduct investigations and produce reports that patients, families, carers and staff value, trust and respect, generating findings and recommendations that improve patient safety
- Act as an exemplar for high‑quality investigation across healthcare provision in England, combining expert patient‑safety investigation with hands‑on training to strengthen investigation capability across healthcare organisations
- Build local capability through real‑time learning and modelling of best practice, supporting the development of accessible learning resources from investigation findings and tailoring approaches to sector‑specific contexts
- Facilitate work‑based learning and apply adult‑learning principles to build sustainable investigation capability throughout the healthcare system
