Salisbury, Wiltshire, United Kingdom Salisbury NHS Foundation Trust Full time
The Cancer Support Worker role will ensure care is personalised for patients and their family.

Through the use of a Holistic Needs Assessment you will support patients and their families to understand what is most important to them.

Through shared decision making together you will formulate a personalised care and support plan promoting patient self-care.


The post holder will act as a single point of access for patient concerns, signposting and supporting patients on an individual basis, liaising closely with clinical teams to enable rapid access to clinical review for those patients who are identified as requiring urgent or specialist needs.


The post holder will support and give advice to help patients minimise the risk of developing further cancer-related problems including possible signs of recurrence or long term effects of treatment.


The post holder will ensure people affected by cancer have access to appropriate information and support to enable them to self-manage post treatment where appropriate.


The role will require a number of administrative duties and will be required to document and monitor all aspects of care coordination and service delivery.


Salisbury NHS Foundation Trust (SFT) is an innovative hospital with a proud heritage and over 250 years of experience behind us.

Here we're driven to deliver an outstanding experience for everyone and have been well regarded for the quality of care and treatment we continue to provide for our patients and also our staff.

We have about 470 beds and employ over 4000 staff.

We support flexible working and will consider requests taking into account the needs of the service. We think working here is pretty rewarding.
