Job description
Are you a compassionate Registered Nurse looking to make a meaningful difference to patients and families at one of the most important times in their ...
In this role, you will provide holistic assessment,
care planning, symptom management, emotional support and practical care for
patients with specialist palliative and end-of-life care needs. You will work
closely with Clinical Nurse Specialists, GPs, District Nursing Teams and other
professionals to coordinate safe, responsive and person-centred care.
You will also maintain accurate clinical records,
support families and carers, contribute to bereavement support where
appropriate, and act as a positive clinical role model for junior colleagues,
students and new team members.
We are looking for a registered nurse with
post-registration experience, excellent communication skills and a commitment
to delivering compassionate, dignified and patient-centred care. You will be
confident working both independently and as part of a multidisciplinary team,
with the ability to manage a varied caseload and respond sensitively to the
needs of patients, families and carers.
Experience in palliative care, oncology, community
nursing or multi-agency working would be an advantage, although we are equally
interested in hearing from nurses who can demonstrate transferable skills, a
willingness to learn and a passion for hospice care.
