Martin Sykes /

Martin is the Chief Nursing & AHP Information Officer at Northern Lincolnshire and Goole Foundation Trust, and the Clinical Safety Officer, playing a critical role in the digital leadership for our frontline care providers. Martin is a registered Therapeutic Radiographer, and led the digitisation of a major radiotherapy department, before taking on his current role.

He was a Topol Digital Fellow in Cohort 2 and has recently been accepted onto Cohort 6 of the Digital Health Leadership course at Imperial College, London. Martin is passionate about how digital tools can improve the safety of care that can be provided, as well as make the working lives of our NHS staff as easy and fulfilling as possible. His most recent project was to lead the deployment of the Imprivata OneSign Single Sign On product across three hospitals, that has already seen benefits including time saving for staff accessing patient data, and improved experience for the staff.
