Description

In this role, Medical Examiners (MEs) will perform proportionate scrutiny of non-coronial deaths in Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire (BNSSG) in order to improve quality and accuracy of mortality data and will directly contribute to improving overall quality of care in BNSSG, with important links to system-wide mortality improvement programmes. MEs will highlight cases for review and ensure they are flagged to the relevant body and/or mortality review programme.

The service, spanning organisations across BNSSG, is well established within acute trusts and still in development across non-acute healthcare providers. There are opportunities for scrutiny of acute deaths in the hospital setting, and for non-acute deaths in a community setting, based on current gaps in the ME team and with some scope for flexibility on agreed working pattern.

As the service develops, successful candidates will be able to have a say in how best we can adapt to the needs of our patients and relatives.
