Inpatient Unit

We are looking for someone to join the bank for our Inpatient Unit to deliver complex symptom management and end of life care to our patients. You will also offer emotional and psychological support to our patients and also their loved ones. Working as part of our multi-disciplinary team you would be responsible for planning and managing care for patients within our unit.

We don’t pretend this is an easy job, but it is incredibly rewarding. You will have support from within your team to help deal with the difficult times. On the positive side you will finish every shift knowing that you have made a huge difference to every patient that you have cared for.

To be successful in this role you will need to be a registered nurse with a passion for palliative care with good communication skills and a desire to deliver personalised care to each of our patients.

You will be driven by our cause and will enjoy working in a fast-paced environment as part of a close team who are welcoming and inclusive – to deliver on our strategy takes real teamwork, energy and passion, no two days are ever the same!

You will be supported and encouraged to innovate and to try new things. Our scope of work and our confident organisational vision creates opportunities for progress and development. And we work together with passion and pride in an environment where people are caring, considerate, inclusive and welcoming. It can be tough. We don’t shy away from that. But you’ll see clearly the importance and impact of your work and feel recognised and part of something remarkable.

Rowcroft Hospice is an independent charity that provides comfort, support and specialist care to over 2,000 patients and their loved ones across South Devon each year. Our Vision is to make every day the best day possible for patients, and those closest to them, living with life-limiting illnesses in South Devon.
