Lay Surveyor Volunteers

CHKS Assurance and Accreditation has a pool of surveyors who give their time voluntarily to visit healthcare providers on the CHKS accreditation programme. They help to assess healthcare services against a comprehensive set of internationally recognised healthcare standards and make recommendations for improvement.

We are now looking to expand this team to include lay surveyors. Lay surveyors are people with no formal experience of working as a clinical professional in the health sector but may have had exposure as a patient or carer to some degree. They will attend visits in the same capacity as our other surveyors but call on their personal experiences to provide input from their perspective of a member of the public.

Lay surveyors will be given information on quality standards relating to the patient or service user experience and asked to provide feedback on how an organisation is performing against these standards. Training is provided and surveyors will be supported on visits by our CHKS accreditation team and professional surveyors.

It is expected that you will provide around five days of support each year. A small amount of travel is required to the healthcare organisations that we are visiting and expenses will be paid. 

Why become a lay surveyor?

  • Learn new skills that you can apply elsewhere in your professional or personal life
  • Play an important role in improving the standard in healthcare organisations
  • Find out more about how the health service works and what is happening in your community
