Exciting Opportunity: Advanced Clinical Practitioners – Integrated Specialist Palliative Care Team (2 Posts)
Due to service expansion, we are seeking two motivated and compassionate Advanced Clinical Practitioners (ACPs) to join our Integrated Specialist Palliative Care Team.
This is an exciting opportunity to work across inpatient, outpatient, community, and virtual ward settings, providing expert assessment, symptom management, and care for patients with complex palliative and end-of-life care needs. The role includes supporting home visits as part of our innovative Palliative Care Virtual Ward, helping patients receive high-quality care in their preferred place of care.

The role also offers opportunities to contribute to service development, quality improvement, audit, research, education, and training.
