Senior Social Worker, Specialist Palliative Care (Fixed Term) with Salisbury NHS Foundation Trust in Salisbury
An exciting opportunity has arisen to join the Specialist Palliative Care Service Family Support Team as a Band 6 Experienced Social Worker for a 2-year fixed term contract. The Family Support Team is a small team of social workers who support adults who are under the care of the Salisbury Specialist Palliative Care Service and their families. The Team also provides bereavement support and is responsible for supervision of a team of experienced bereavement support volunteers. The social workers work with children both within family support and bereavement support. The Team works closely with the multi professional colleagues within the Specialist Palliative Care Service. The Service consists of the Hospice Inpatient Unit, Community Palliative Care Team, Hospital Palliative Care Team, Hospice@Home, Therapies, Complementary Therapies and Peter Gillam Support Centre. The catchment area of the Service is a geography covering South Wiltshire, along with parts of Hampshire and Dorset. Most of the Family Support Team's work is carried out in the community but the office base is in the Salisbury Hospice building, which is on the site of Salisbury District Hospital. This post will suit someone who enjoys working as part of a multi professional team but who is confident managing the priorities within their own workload and who has effective interpersonal communication skills and the flexibility to adapt to different presenting situations and needs. As a Senior Social Worker, you will provide psychosocial palliative care for our patients and their families/carers. You will contribute to the holistic assessment of our patients by working collaboratively with the multi professional colleagues within the Service. You will support individuals living with terminal illness and those dealing with impending death, loss and grief. Some of this work involves supporting groups. The work will take place in a variety of settings, whether in people's own homes, schools or the Hospice building. You will also be involved in the supervision and support of volunteers, as well as delivering training in education programmes.
