"Getting new Staff at Rampton"

Rampton Hospital Involvement in interviewing

Some of us Patients have been helping interview Staff at the Assessment centres here in Rampton. Assessment centres help pick out good candidates for formal interviews

It was a good day in good company. I was able to Chair this time. We discussed all the candidates strengths and appreciated everyone’s views . Some of the candidates fed back to us and expressed how good it was to experience the Patient Panel. Mixing with candidates during breaks gave the opportunity to let their guard down so to speak and chat freely which is very good. We had enough time after the interviews for discussions, we went thought everything and everyone fed back and shared views. It was good to have the privilege to be on the interviewing. There was nothing bad at all. Patients do feel valued to be part of the assessments. Just keep involving Patients and continue to share ideas

Thank you for your posting. It sounds like a very productive day and real partnership working with Staff. Having Patients Involvement in this is excellent and I am sure you enjoyed chairing. I do like the part of meeting and mixing with the candidates during breaks and of course feeling valued is very very important. Well done to you, the Panel and the Staff that makes this happen.
