Prif ddyletswyddau'r swydd

The post holder will work as part of the multidisciplinary team and will assist and support the community clinical team(s). This will include working as within the patient’s home environment to provide care and support to patients with palliative care needs, and their families. 

The Hospice at Home service supports the family and patient to enable the patient to remain at home in their preferred place of care towards the end of their life. It is supplementary to any CHC package of care, and provides HCA care shifts or sits, for extended periods of time providing 1:1 care for palliative patients, supporting the family to have a break from their carer role during these periods. 

The post holder would be expected to undertake a range of patient interventions within the scope of NVQ level 3 skills as determined by the needs of the individual patient.  The successful applicant will be required to work unsupervised as a lone worker in the patient's own home caring for patients with a range of palliative care needs, in the last months, days and hours of their lives.  Excellent communication skills are essential for this role, both with patients and families, the wider specialist palliative care MDT, and when collaborating with primary care teams caring for the patient. 

The post holder may at times be required to provide support and cover as a Band 3 HCA for the specialist palliative care inpatient unit based at Woodlands Hospice.
