The Brighton and Hove Local Involvement Network (LINk) are looking for members of the community (who must be Brighton and Hove residents) to become Authorised LINk Enter & View Representatives. This means that you will be able to enter publicly funded health and social care premises, such as hospitals, GP surgeries, dental surgeries, opticians and adult care homes.
The aim of these visits is to view the care provided, and report on the findings to the service providers and commissioners of services.
The Enter and View programme is an important part of the LINk activity and the LINk has powers under the “Local Government and Public Involvement in Health Act 2007” which enables them to carry out this role.
We are looking for people who have an interest in making a difference for their local community. You will need to interact with service users and providers. You will take note of what is happening in places where problems have been reported, or where examples of interesting or good practice are happening.
