Clinical Nurse Specialist Palliative Care

The closing date is 15 July 2025

An opportunity has arisen to join our Palliative care clinical nurse service. A 22.5 hour post has become available as a result of a member of the team leaving for a newly created post.

The Band 7 CNS role is located at Y Bwthyn our palliative care unit within the grounds of the Princess of Wales Hospital. The position provides an outreach service to patients with palliative care needs across the community. While working as part of the 7 day roster the service provides support to both the hospital and community area. The team provides support for the population of Bridgend Borough Council including the Ogmore, Garw and Llynfi valleys and the Princess of Wales Hospital.

The specialist palliative care service is delivered within MDT teams on multiple sites across Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board. An appreciation that on occasions, dependent on patient need there may be a need for post holder flexibility in providing support to cover the CNS role across other sites.


Main duties of the job

The position involves directly supporting and advising patients with palliative care needs in a hospital and community setting.

Multidisciplinary team working to lead education and to provide support and guidance to colleagues about the specialty is key. The core hours are Monday to Friday 9-5pm but with participation in a 7 day roster with the same working hours. The role will require giving advice to other health care professionals, patients and families, potentially visiting patients in the hospital and community setting at weekends.

The successful applicant would be responsible for managing a caseload of patients with specialist palliative care needs in collaboration with the wider MDT, participating in an education, audit and providing leadership regarding the specialty.

You will need to be enthusiastic about the specialty, demonstrate experience of caring for patients with palliative care needs and be able to meet the travel requirements.

The Specialist Palliative Care Team in CTMUHB is a multi-professional team providing a clinical, advisory and educational service across CTMUHB. The team are situated in locality bases which each have a SPC inpatient unit and house services that provide outreach services to both community and hospital patients.

The ability to speak Welsh is desirable for this post; English and/or Welsh speakers are equally welcome to apply.
