A unique and exciting opportunity has arisen for a Healthcare Support Worker/Administrative Assistant to join the Live Your Life service at Strathcarron Hospice. 

The Live Your Life service is a new and innovative offer at Strathcarron Hospice.

You will work as part of the multidisciplinary team to support effective clinical care and well-being for people living with life limiting conditions and their families. Using a goal focussed approach to care, you will provide telephone, virtual and face-to-face support for people on our caseload, to support them to live as well as they can for as long as they can. Your role will also include administrative and clerical support to the Live Your Life Lead Nurse and wider team.  

You should be an excellent communicator and have previous experience of working with people with palliative care needs. Previous clerical experience is desirable. 

You should have excellent organisational skills and you should be proficient in the use of computer packages.

The post is subject to a check by Disclosure Scotland.
