About us:

Princess Alice Hospice is one of the top ten adult hospices in the UK, providing specialist palliative care and support to a community of more than a million people living in Surrey, South West London and Middlesex. 

About our Night Response Team:

Our Night Response Team (NR) provides specialist on call palliative nursing care between the hours of 22.00 and 08.00, 7 days a week for palliative care patients known to Princess Alice Hospice.

The Team also provides nursing care and assistance to palliative and general patients who are referred from the district nursing service, the OOH’s service (111), local ambulance services SECAMB and LAS, Mole Valley Telecare and Tunstall Community Alarm services. This includes palliative patients who are not known to PAH. Night Response visit patients in their own homes as well as in care and residential homes.

A Night Response shift will be covered by two members of staff per night, usually one RN and an SHCA, occasionally two RN’s.

We are based in an office on the in-patient unit at the Hospice. We receive calls, provide information, support and advice to patients, families, and other health care professionals, whilst visiting patients as required throughout the night.

The Night Response Service brings the skills and expertise of our highly trained and dedicated specialist team directly into the patients homes. This allows patients, their families and carers access to the vital support they need at home, when time matters most, providing the opportunity for patients to remain at home and reducing the need for hospital admissions.  

About the role:

We are looking for an experienced and versatile Staff Nurse with excellent interpersonal, communication and telephone triage skills, to join our Night Response Team.

Experience in caring for patients who are terminally ill is essential. You will need to be able to work autonomously and have an excellent understanding of care provision in the community and be involved in auditing the service provided. 

You will need a full driving license with a maximum of 6 points for use of the hospice vehicle (automatic)

The salary for this role is complemented with a premium payable for unsocial hours, e.g. nights, which is paid monthly in arrears. Lower rate enhancement is payable at the rate of ‘plus one third’ for hours worked between 8pm and 8am, Monday to Friday, and all day Saturday. Higher rate enhancement is payable at the rate of ‘plus two thirds’ for any hours worked at any time on a Sunday or public holiday.

 About you:

You will be motivated, a flexible thinker, and able to adapt to new ways of providing care to reach more patients within the community. You will have excellent communication skills and enjoy assessing the needs of patients, families, and carers. 

If you are enthusiastic, personable and share our values and care about making a difference in the last years of someone’s life, we look forward to hearing from you! 

As well as joining a caring organisation where you will be able to make a difference for our patients and their families, some of our employee benefits include: 

- Educational and professional development opportunities (we have an on-site Education Team)
- Monthly group reflections via Schwartz Rounds sessions
- Free on-site parking
