Opportunity to join our Clinical Nurse Specialist Bank

Hospiscare Band 6, from £19.84 per hour

Hours as required on a casual working agreement

We are currently recruiting for a Bank Community Nurse Specialist to join our team, to deliver high-quality, evidence-based specialist palliative care and clinical advice to adults registered with a GP across Exeter, Mid Devon, and East Devon.

The successful candidate will provide holistic care, offer expert clinical advice and interventions, and work collaboratively with local GPs and Community Nurses to support our service provision.

To be considered, you will need to demonstrate substantial experience in palliative or end-of-life care, along with a strong understanding of the emotional and clinical complexities involved in supporting individuals during times of distress and conflict. Excellent communication, interpersonal, and IT skills are essential, as is the ability to work effectively within a team, prioritise tasks, and manage time efficiently.

Experience in a community setting would be advantageous. While you will typically cover a defined area, flexibility to travel across the wider Hospiscare region is essential.
