Are you an RNC or RNA/RNLD with paediatric experience looking for a flexible opportunity to provide quality, one to one care to children with palliative and complex health care needs?

We are looking for experienced nurses in caring for and delivering high standards of nursing care for babies, children and young people with complex health needs to come and join our fantastic care teams at Richard House Children Hospice.

Being part of our nursing bank is a great opportunity to work as part of our care team, providing a range of personalised holistic services, while working around your own commitments. As well as providing clinical care, you will also develop play and recreational activities to provide appropriate stimulation for the children in your care.

We are looking for nurses who have knowledge and experience of caring for children and their families, are able to communicate sensitively, and will put the needs of our children at the centre of everything they do to create a safe and positive environment.

Based in the multi-cultural borough of Newham, we operate a two-shift pattern of 11.5 hours across the week and weekends. We require applicants to be available to work weekday shifts as well as weeknights and weekends and you must be available for three to four induction shifts which take place on weekdays.

Richard House is committed to the safeguarding of children and vulnerable adults. Successful candidates will be required to undertake a Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check.

We practice a diverse and inclusive recruitment process that ensures equal opportunity for all we work with, irrespective of race, sexual orientation, mental or physical disability, age or gender. As an organisation, we encourage applications from all backgrounds and will ensure measures are met when required, to allow a fair process throughout.

Richard House is not authorised to sponsor overseas workers; you will need to have the right to work in the UK to be considered for this role.
