Meet Sam, the EMHS Manager of Safety, Quality and Consumer Engagement. Sam plays a vital role in preventing patient harm at EMHS by supporting our sites and services in their delivery of high quality care and safe patient outcomes.

Further to this, Sam monitors the services EMHS provide and the information is used to update the EMHS Executive and Board regularly. This helps to ensure all services are performing to the standard of excellence we expect at EMHS.

“My role is a diverse one,” said Sam.

"In broad terms I work on matters of governance and strategic leadership, innovation projects, clinical practice improvements and risk management, clinical policy delivery and standard setting.”

A major part of Sam’s role is to work with staff from across EMHS and facilitate collaboration and continuous improvement.

“I bring together the right people, from doctors, nurses and allied health, in a respectful environment and work with them to problem solve and enhance the consumer experience at EMHS,” said Sam.

“Recently, I facilitated the development of an Emergency Department Sepsis Pathway which improves our high quality care and consistent patient outcomes.”

“It was a collaborative effort and one of which I am proud to have been part of.”

Thanks Sam for your commitment to our values of excellence and respect, and for striving every day to fulfil our vision of healthy people, amazing care. Koorda moort, moorditj kwabadak.
