We are excited to announce that we have a rare opportunity to onboard a new team of palliative care professionals to join a community service which is based around the Hertfordshire and Buckinghamshire areas. We have been the sole agency supplier to this service for the past nine years, so if you are looking for continuity in your role this will be the perfect position for you.

This project provides essential end of life care to patients within the comfort of their own homes. Prospective care staff must have access to their own car and have a full UK driving licence in order to apply.

The successful candidates will be responsible for working as a lone worker or as a double up providing personal and emotional care to palliative care patients. You will be required to assist to both the physical and mental needs of the patients and their families. You must be compassionate, friendly and reliable to be considered for this position. You will be required to travel between patients homes to provide the highest quality of care.

Locations covered by the service:
The rotas and patient rounds are split up between Northwest Herts, South Herts and Bucks rounds. Your round would consist of patients in similar areas to minimise the driving however this does depend on the patient referral caseload.
