About us: 

Princess Alice Hospice is one of the top ten adult hospices in the UK, providing specialist palliative care and support to a community of more than a million people living in Surrey, south west London and Middlesex.  

Here at Princess Alice, you’ll have the opportunity to make a satisfying, rewarding difference to the lives of our patients, their families and friends, and be supported every step of the way. We’re small enough for you to see the impact your social worker skills have, and big enough to support you with training, experience and opportunities.  

The secret to our CQC ‘Outstanding’ rating is simple. We care for our carers.

About the Hospice at Home team: 

Our Hospice at Home service brings the skills and expertise of our highly trained and dedicated specialist team directly into our patient’s homes. This allows patients, their families, and carers access to the vital support they need at home, at a time when it really matters.

About the role:

About you: 

You will be motivated, a flexible thinker, and able to adapt to new ways of providing care to reach more patients within the community. You’ll have excellent communication skills and enjoy working alongside a multidisciplinary team to assess the needs of patients, families, and carers.

If you are enthusiastic, personable and share our values and care about making a difference in the last years of someone’s life, we would love to hear from you!

As well as joining a caring organisation where you will be able to make a difference for our patients and their families, some of our employee benefits include:

  • 27 days’ annual leave plus recognised public holidays - rising to 29 days after 5 years’ service and 33 days after 10 years’ service (pro rata for part time)
