About the Role
As part of our service development, we have identified a significant unmet need in menopause support for breast cancer patients. We have secured funding from an external funder to develop a menopause support service.
We are looking for a motivated registered nurse with experience in breast oncology care to join our oncology breast service. The post holder will be expected to work autonomously as part of a team. This role is part-time, 22.5 hours per week for a fixed term contract of 23 months.
Responsibilities
The successful candidate will be expected to develop and implement a new endocrine therapy support service. In addition, the successful candidate will also be expected to play an active role in designing and refining care pathways, develop standard operating procedures, create patient information resources, and establish collaborative working processes between primary and secondary care. They will help identify service needs, analyse patient experience and activity data, and contribute to continuous quality improvement initiatives that strengthen the endocrine survivorship pathway.
The Nurse Practitioner for Breast Oncology will provide specialist nursing support to people with early breast cancer who are receiving endocrine therapy and experiencing treatment-related side effects, including therapy-induced menopause. The postholder will use advanced assessment and specialist clinical knowledge to provide holistic symptom management, patient education, and ongoing supportive care that promotes treatment adherence and enhances quality of life.
