Katharine House Hospice is a registered charity with an 8-bedded In-Patient unit, a Therapies and Wellbeing Unit with outpatient services, a Hospice at Home Service, and a Lymphoedema Clinic. We are looking to recruit a doctor(s) to provide day to day medical care, in conjunction with the multi-disciplinary team, to patients and their carers for all clinical services within Katharine House Hospice.

Katharine House Hospice has a management and multi-disciplinary team wholly committed to providing the best quality care to those members of our local community with life-limiting illnesses. The ethos and general atmosphere of the organisation is reflected by the feedback we receive from both the Care Quality Commission reports and from our patients and their families.

Katharine House Hospice is keen to promote palliative medicine in the wider community and is involved in undergraduate medical education to students from both Keele and Birmingham Universities and also offers educational support to junior doctors at the University Hospital of North Midlands. We have an active audit programme and are planning to develop research projects.

The successful applicant(s) must have full GMC registration and medical indemnity cover, and experience of working in palliative medicine is desirable but not essential. An enhanced DBS check is also required.
