Job Summary

Clinical Nurse Specialist/Clinical Paramedic Specialist - Hospice Outreach Service - 12 months fixed term Maternity cover

Do you want to be part of a committed and supportive multi-disciplinary team, delivering empowering and compassionate care supporting people with a life limiting illness? If so, this position is for you!

Your new role

As part of our model of care to ensure we ‘have the right people, providing the right care in the right place and at the right time,’ we are offering Clinical Nurse Specialist (CNS) or Clinical Paramedic Specialist (CPS) roles, which are the equivalent to a Band 7, to work as part of our multi-disciplinary team within the Hospice Outreach Service in the community.

So, what does that mean? Our Hospice Outreach Team are the initial point of contact for all new community referrals and all telephone calls coming into the service. They are at the forefront of providing palliative advice and support to patients and families in the place they call home, including care homes and nursing homes. You will be part of a rota of clinicians covering our seven day a week service offering telephone support, as well as clinic and home-based assessments.

Our team care for patients who have a life limiting illness and our focus is on individualised care. We focus on improving quality of life and achieving patient centred goals. We care for people with long term conditions; including heart failure, respiratory disease, frailty and neurological conditions, as well as those with an oncological diagnosis.

At the Hospice, our team strive to work alongside other community teams and specialists to optimise patient experience and improve our team knowledge and development.

To succeed in this role...

You are a motivated clinician with the ability to work as an independent practitioner, while also being part of a responsive and resilient team. You possess advanced communication skills and excellent presentation skills (both oral and written).

You have proven community or in-patient palliative care experience at Band 7 or have the equivalent level of experience working in the following related areas: Paramedic, General Medicine, Neurology, Emergency Medicine, Frailty, Respiratory Care, Cardiology or Oncology. You will have sound pharmacological knowledge of medications used within the specialty of palliative care /EOL care.

Why join our team? We have flexible working options to suit your work-life balance, and you can transfer your NHS pension. Other benefits include free parking at our Pembury site and a generous holiday allowance, with the ability to buy and sell additional holiday.
