Care is delivered throughout the peninsula using a holistic approach to assess, identify and prioritise health needs within the home environment and wider community setting in conjunction with the wider primary health care team and colleagues within the Health and Social Care Partnership.

A co-ordinated approach to prevention of admission and hospital discharge is taken which includes user involvement in service planning and delivery.

Skilled clinical interventions, health education and promotion are provided in order to maintain optimum independent living in the community.

Applicants must be NMC registered and possess clinical assessment skills.

Experience of providing palliative care would be advantageous for this role.

Kintyre affords great opportunities for excellent work/life balance.

The islands of Islay, Gigha, Arran and Jura are easily accessible.

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.
