Senior Charge Nurse

Band 7


This is not your usual Senior Charge Nurse role!

Fancy a challenge? Come and be a part of leading change and innovation at Ardgowan Hospice.

From a starting place of being a traditional local hospice, we aspire to be the best hospice in the UK. We want to reach out to our community and ensure that anyone that needs good palliative care gets it. We’re redesigning our Community MDT offer and we’ve created new wellbeing services.

And yet, at the heart of our work remains our In-Patient Unit (IPU). Our 7 bedded ward seeks to support those with complex physical and social needs that offer care to those who need help with symptoms, pain management, or end-of-life care.

We want to find the best Band 7 Senior Charge Nurse. You will have overall leadership responsibility for the IPU. You will be accountable for the IPU's clinical, professional and operational running, including managing budgets and all clinical and staff governance issues.

You must be a qualified nurse with palliative care experience.  You should also have experience and/or qualified in staff leadership, change management and team working skills.
