Have you considered working within Specialist Palliative care?

Are you passionate about delivering care to patients with a life limiting illness, do you have previous experience of a role in care?

If the answer to any of the above is yes, then we would love to hear from you.

We are looking for a healthcare assistant who has an understanding and interest in palliative care.

The hospice provides 24/7 delivery of specialist palliative care to patients over 18 years of age, with life limiting disease.

We are looking for a healthcare assistant who has an understanding and interest in palliative care. Experience of working in palliative care whilst an advantage is not essential, as support and training will be provided as part of local induction. Good communication and interpersonal skills are essential for these posts as you will be required to communicate sensitively and compassionately with patients and family.

NHFT is an integrated primary care and mental health Trust, providing physical, mental health and specialty services in both hospital settings and out in the community. Because we put the person at the centre of all we do, we focus on delivering care that is as easy to access as possible. This means many of our services can be provided at home, work or in schools. We also provide health services to various prisons and detention centres in Bedfordshire and Cambridgeshire.

All staff in a non-registered staff role will undertake NHFT’s Prepare to Care programme as part of their induction. Using a blended learning approach, you will attain key skills and competencies enabling you to provide safe and compassionate care from the very start. Alongside this, you will also complete the Care Certificate within your first 12 weeks of employment, this may act as stepping stone should you wish to further your career later on. You will be supported through your induction by a dedicated team, who’s primary focus is to ensure you have the right skills to do your job effectively.

For further information on the advertised role, please refer to the job description located under the Supporting Documents heading. The full person specification can be accessed under the ‘About You’ Section of the document.
