The aim is for our workforce to be truly representative and for each employee to feel respected and able to give their best. To this end, NHS Scotland welcomes applications from all sections of society. Specialist palliative care services work alongside referring clinical teams to optimise quality of life and to support a peaceful, dignified death for patients requiring palliative care by managing complex physical symptoms, psychological distress and social issues. The service extends specialist support to family and those important to the patient. The post holder has professional and managerial responsibility for a caseload of patients referred to the specialist palliative care service throughout NHS Lothian University Hospitals. Ensure the highest standard of personalised, evidence based palliative care is delivered to patients and their families in partnership with all members of the multi disciplinary team.

If after reading this information you have any questions please contact Zoe.Gerber@nhslothian.scot.nhs.uk or 0131 537 2243. This post requires the post holder to have a PVG Scheme membership/ record. If the post holder is not a current PVG member for the required regulatory group (i.e. child and/or adult) then an application will need to be made to Disclosure Scotland and deemed satisfactory before they can begin in post. Please note: As this post is part-time the salary will be pro-rata. NHS Scotland is reducing their full-time working week from 37.5 to 37 hours per week from 1 April 2024 but with no change in pay. This reduction will also be applied pro rata for part time staff. This advert and any subsequent offer/contract of employment therefore reflects the new working hours. However, as not all service areas will be able to adopt the 37 hour working week immediately from 1 April 2024, you may be required to work up to an additional 30 minutes per week for a temporary period for which you would be paid until the service you are working in changes rosters or working patterns to accommodate the new reduced working week. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the Recruiting Board."}
