Job details
Full job description
We currently provide specialist palliative input to patients in their own homes, in our Community Care Unit (outpatient) locations, and our inpatient beds at Beccles Hospital.
You will be part of a larger multi-disciplinary Specialist Palliative Team, comprising Consultants, Specialty Doctors, Clinical Nurse Specialists, Registered Nurses and Counsellors. We work very closely with our ECCH partners, and so also have the support of a larger network of Therapists working within the community.
St Elizabeth Hospice is based in Ipswich and has supported patients and families within the Mid-East Suffolk region for over 30 years. The Hospice extended its reach into the Great Yarmouth and Waveney area in 2019. The Norfolk and Waveney Integrated Care Board awarded the Community Care contract to East Coast Community Healthcare (ECCH). The contract includes a Specialist Palliative Care service which is delivered in partnership with St Elizabeth Hospice. Our most recent Care Quality Commission report rated the hospice as “Outstanding”.
With the construction of our new hospice in Gorleston due to commence shortly, this is an exciting time to join St Elizabeth Hospice. The new facility will provide both inpatient and outpatient services, representing a significant investment in specialist palliative and end of life care across Great Yarmouth and Waveney. As we continue to expand and develop our services, we are seeking passionate and innovative professionals to join our Specialist Palliative Care Therapy Team. This role offers a unique opportunity to influence the delivery of holistic care and palliative rehabilitation for people living with progressive and life-limiting illness, helping patients maximise independence, achieve what matters most to them, and enhance their quality of life. If you are looking to be part of a forward-thinking organisation at a time of growth and transformation, this is a chance to make a genuine and lasting difference to people’s lives.
St Elizabeth Hospice is committed to safeguarding and protecting the adults and young people that we work with and has a zero-tolerance approach to abuse, neglect and discrimination of any person. As such, all posts are subject to a rigorous safer recruitment process, including the disclosure of criminal records and vetting checks. We have a range of robust safeguarding policies in place which promote safeguarding across the hospice and staff are expected to undertake regular, mandatory safeguarding training to equip them with the knowledge and skills to identify and respond to potential risks.
