Job summary
We are looking for experienced nurses to join our community palliative team here at Greenwich & Bexley. If you are enthusiastic and committed to palliative and end of life care, then you may be what we are looking for.
We are looking to appoint two posts to our team. Those applying for a band 7 will have existing palliative care and leadership experience. However, we recognise there are many nurses looking to move into palliative care and so for the right applicant we will consider a band 6 role that will offer the opportunity to develop their skills, knowledge and experience in looking after and supporting people living with a terminal illness. Both roles will offer the opportunity to work across our services which will include the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Woolwich. Please indicate which band you are applying for in your supporting statement.

Whist this post is for our community team, offering symptom control and end of life care support, Our services and support also extend further and include the Hospice inpatient unit, care homes, prisons and in our local hospital. Our staff work in our own services and in partnership with other health and care organisations to help people maintain connections with their community and to maximise their quality of life.
We offer great opportunities to develop further skills and knowledge in Palliative care and many of our hospice team have developed to more senior roles while they have been with us. The organisation actively supports academic development including non-medical prescribing, advanced clinical assessment, relevant Masters programmes and other recognised courses. We provide regular clinical supervision and are able to continue participation in the NHS pension scheme for existing members.
