Job Description

Candidates must be able to meet the essential criteria for the interim post which includes the requirement of having had experience a senior role within health and justice for a credible period of time (the rationale for this being an interim role needs to be able to move swiftly into post with prison vetting already in place).

The post holder must also be able to demonstrate :

Evidence of implementing site-based improvements



Good financial management of budgets and cost efficiencies



Good understanding of CQC inspections



Patient focussed with evidence of engagement



Ability to lead change and quality improvements linked to patient safety



Data driven and performance focused



Positive stakeholder partnerships



You will be the registered CQC Manager and be responsible for supporting and ensuring compliance with CQC standards and regulations using continuous improvement methodologies, working alongside colleagues from the Quality department.



You will be responsible for the effective day-to-day operational management of all clinical services provided throughout the prison, including primary care nursing clinics, GP clinics, and substance misuse services. You will be responsible for the management and monitoring of all service level agreements (dental services, physiotherapy, podiatry) ensuring performance-monitoring standards are adhered to and the highest standards of care are maintained. This role within the prison is a senior role with responsibility as lead for delivery of service outcomes at a local level.



Your health and wellbeing is important to us and as such we offer flexibility in the workplace to support balance in your working life. We welcome informal site visits prior to interview.



This position is a perfect match for someone who is passionate about upholding and advancing exceptional standards of care and service and possesses the capability to motivate and elevate the team through robust clinical supervision and continuous professional growth.
