The Myton Hospices provide specialist palliative care to patients with life limiting illness and are the only hospice providing in-patient care within Warwickshire and Coventry.

The service provides support and care for patients in the inpatient unit, day hospice and outpatients. Palliative care experience is desirable but not essential as training can be given. You will also possess strong interpersonal and communication skills to work collaboratively with colleagues and deal sensitively with patients with complex needs.
The successful applicant will be a 1st Level Registered Nurse or Allied Health Professional with a recognised qualification and appropriate experience. Knowledge of current best practice in lymphoedem management is essential, together with a teaching qualification.
