Ardgowan Hospice
Ardgowan Hospice is the local hospice in Inverclyde (population approx. 80,000) and has been in operation since 1981. Each year we care for around 1,000 patients diagnosed with a life-limiting illness such as cancer, heart failure, lung disease, kidney failure or neurological conditions as well as their families. Support ranges from end-of-life care, pain management and bereavement support to helping patients return to work after an illness.
Our philosophy is to work together as a multi-disciplinary team helping to maximise quality of life by reducing physical and psychological symptom burden of an increasingly infirm patient group with a higher prevalence of co-morbidity. Overarching this we have a small senior management team made up of the CEO, Director of Care, Head of Corporate Development and Head of Finance who support and oversee the care management and delivery of our services to our community.
As well as a competitive salary, new starters will have 27 days annual leave (+ bank holidays), pension contribution (optional) and training opportunities.
