IPU Clinical Lead Nurse
A leading London charity for specialist palliative care and associated wellbeing support is now looking for an experienced Registered Nurse (RN Adult) to join their IPU as Clinical Lead Nurse.
The charity provides cohesive palliative and end-of-life services for adults with life-limiting conditions, both at their fully-“Good” rated inpatient unit and within patients’ own homes.
Patients experiencing complex physical and psychosocial needs can receive advanced pain and symptom support at the IPU before continuing to receive specialist care at their preferred place, allowing them to remain in familiar surroundings with a maximised quality of life.
Additionally, with specialist psychological, social and peer support services available through their wellbeing centre, the team can also offer patients, carers and loved ones comprehensive practical, emotional and bereavement support – making a real and lasting difference to many.
