We are looking for an experienced and enthusiastic nurse to join the innovative Specialist Palliative Care Team (SPCT), working in the community care team. To provide expert, patient-centered palliative care within the community, supporting individuals with life-limiting illness.
The post holder will provide expert clinical leadership and education across palliative and end of life care services within our Trust.
You will have a defined caseload, setting and maintaining high standards of care through advanced assessment, planning, implementation, and evaluation. Acting as a clinical expert, you will support patients, families, and colleagues to deliver compassionate, evidence-based, person-centred care.

In return, we offer professional development opportunities, a supportive leadership culture, and the chance to make a lasting difference to patients and those important to them at a pivotal stage of life.
• Provide expert clinical leadership and advanced palliative care to patients with complex needs across acute and community settings. Act as a role model and source of specialist advice to nursing and multidisciplinary teams.
• Complete advanced assessments, develop and evaluate individualised care plans, and use non-medical prescribing (where appropriate) to ensure timely and effective interventions.
• Lead the development, delivery, and evaluation of a Trust-wide education strategy for palliative and end of life care. Design and facilitate learning programmes for all staff groups and contribute to post-graduate teaching and training.

• Provide day-to-day leadership within the SPCT and deputise for the Team Leader when required. Contribute to workforce development, supervision, and appraisal of staff, and support service planning and resource management.
• Participate in and lead clinical audits, contribute to the research agenda within specialist palliative care, and evaluate outcomes to inform policy and practice improvements.
• Communicate complex and sensitive information with patients, families, and professionals. Foster strong multidisciplinary and cross-sector partnerships to ensure seamless, person-centred care across all settings.
