The Patient and Carer Experience Panel (PaCE Panel) consists of members of the public who volunteer their time to work collaboratively with staff members.

The staff representatives on the PaCE Panel consist of senior staff members from each of the Care Groups and senior representatives from Facilities, Estates, Engagement, PALS and Complaints, Dementia, and Clinical Audit teams. The Director of Nursing, Midwifery and Quality and Deputy Director of Nursing will be joint chair to the Panel.

They will ensure a collaborative approach to quality improvement is adopted and bring together hospital staff and patient representatives at an equal level to raise the patient, carer and public voice within the Trust.

The joining of Trust staff and patient representatives facilitates a collaborative model to deliver sustainable and patient centred improvement in care and experience.
