- Develop and produce quarterly patient experience trending reports for the Quality Committee.
- Lead the development of the annual patient experience report, synthesizing survey data, patient relations themes, and advisory group insights.
- Support the Manager in preparing patient experience summaries for the Board Quality Committee and other governance audiences.
Collaboration and Engagement
- Work cross-functionally with clinical managers, physician affairs, and program leads to embed patient experience principles into operations and improvement work.
- Support staff and provider capacity to respond to patient concerns with empathy, professionalism, and a focus on resolution.
- Stay current with best practices through external networks including the Ontario Patient Relations Association and the local Ontario Health Team.
