Authorised Representatives carry out visits to NHS and social care services and venues to see how they run. They talk to and record experiences of people who are using the services. Authorised Representatives spend time observing the service environment and the care that is being delivered. Visits are carried out in groups. They are planned and volunteers sign up to dates they can do.
Our work helps to improve services, their care, standards and benefit local people who may not have a voice.
A Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check is needed to carry out the role. We also provide a specific training course, induction, and support for this role, with an assessment to show you understand the role, as it has statutory powers.
Authorised Representatives are happy to go to different NHS and care settings. They enjoy listening to others.
