Low frequency of on call (second on is 1 in 10 across 3 Hospices). Opportunities to develop in any area of interest (education, clinical governance, leadership, research). AND. St Michaels Hospice has announced the building of a new hospice in the next seven years, so great opportunity to influence the future caring environment we will all work from and in.
