Queen Mary’s Hospital in Roehampton are looking for a volunteer to take part in their regular inspections.

Join PEAG and do PEATs

These inspections are called Patient Environment Action Team (PEAT) inspections and assess a range of factors including standards of maintenance, décor, furnishings and cleanliness to help bring about improvements to the patient environment.

Queen Mary’s carries out 3 “mini-PEAT” inspections and one PEAT inspection every year through a group called the Patient Environment Action Group (PEAG). The PEAG meets every 3 months, and volunteers will be expected to take part in each meeting and inspection (i.e. 8 sessions per year).

The hospital is looking for volunteers who have a keen interest in the patient environment and experience, and are able to report back to the LINk (verbally and in writing). They will cover all expenses that you incur when taking part in this role and can provide additional support in the form of basic training (giving background on PEAT inspections).

The deadline for submission is the 4th August, applicants to supply a short personal statement (no more than 200 words).

Please note if there is an insufficient response, they will defer an appointment until October so there will be another chance to get involved.

If you are interested in this opportunity please contact Tom Magill on 0208 812 7642 or Tom.Magill@wpct.nhs.uk.
